Welcome to the Brain Mind Institute (BMI) The mission of the Brain Mind Institute (BMI) is to understand the fundamental principles of brain function in health and disease, by using and developing unique experimental, theoretical, technological and computational approaches. The scientific challenge addressed by the BMI consists in connecting different levels of analysis of brain activity, such that cognitive functions can be understood as a manifestation of specific brain processes; specific brain processes as emerging from the collective activity of thousands of cells and synapses; synaptic and neuronal activity in turn as emerging properties of the biophysical and molecular mechanisms of cellular compartments. Research at the BMI focuses on four main areas: read more (http://sv.epfl.ch/aboutBMI)
