MCW Neuroscience Research Center Giving

What Does Your Gift Mean to the Neuroscience Research Center?

The Medical College of Wisconsin's Neuroscience Research Center was founded in 2010 with the goal of enhancing neuroscience research at the Medical College of Wisconsin. The Center's overarching goal is to use a team approach to tackle neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Support the Neuroscience Research Center

Your gift will help our groundbreaking researchers advance our understanding of the most complex brain disorders. Philanthropy plays an important role in advancing the work of the Neuroscience Center and the patients who receive its benefits. Your gift will support research that moves us one step closer to understanding complex and devastating brain disorders such as Alzheimer's and dementia, Parkinson's disease, ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and schizophrenia, among others.

Impact: 2023 Imagine More Dinner

From the 2023 Imagine More Dinner, members from MCW and the wider Milwaukee community united in recognizing remarkable achievements in neuroscience at MCW. These accomplishments were highlighted by Shekar Kurpad, MD, PhD in his captivating keynote address, which also provided an inspiring roadmap for the future of neurosciences at MCW. Co-chaired by Mary Ellen Stanek and David Lubar, this year's dinner raised a record $1 million in funding, with $350,000 contributed by a single donor dedicated to supporting Parkinson's Disease research efforts at MCW. The recipient of this year's esteemed Neuro Hero award: the Avalon Action Alliance. Their recent, extraordinary donation of $12.5M to the Wisconsin Neuroscience Institute has paved the way for the establishment of the BRAVE (Building Resilience through Action in Veterans and First Responders) program. Thank you tremendously to all our generous donors; together, we possess the power to envision limitless possibilities and imagine more.
