Why Give to Sunnybrook’s Hurvitz Brain Sciences Program?

The Hurvitz Brain Sciences Program brings together high-performing teams, leading-edge image-guided technologies, and innovative spaces to tackle some of the most challenging brain disorders of our time, including mood and anxiety disorders, dementia, stroke, and more. By leveraging Sunnybrook’s strengths in biology, physics, and imaging, we offer unique perspectives that drive innovation and new treatments in brain health.

Our program is the first to unite psychiatry and neurology, creating a holistic, multidisciplinary approach that’s unique to Sunnybrook. This collaboration enables us to provide the most comprehensive care for patients with brain disorders.

Our team of experts is dedicated to both clinical care and groundbreaking research into some of the most complex brain conditions, such as mood and anxiety disorders, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, and stroke.

Philanthropic support plays a vital role in accelerating our breakthroughs, helping us recruit top talent and fast-track promising ideas into real-world treatments for patients and families.
