A group of University at Buffalo researchers have formed a collaboration to advance research into autism and other complex conditions.
The partnership brings UB’s Center for Integrated Global Biomedical Sciences (CIGBS) together with The Center for Discovery, a $100 million nonprofit that develops models of care with residential, education, medical and research services from a 1,500-acre campus in Harris in Sullivan County.
Together, the two organizations will focus on translational research and innovation, lectures and virtual education as well as global outreach through the SUNY Global Health Institute to connect with leading universities and medical institutions around the world.
Dr. Gene Morse, a professor in UB’s School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, is director of the CIGBS and co-director of the SUNY Global Health Institute. Morse said he sees enormous potential to advance evaluation of biomarkers, drug development and nutritional strategies.
“They have some very innovative prevention and care programs they’re studying and evaluating, and we have an interest in trying to bring together more of a biomedical research component,” said Morse, who will lead the collaboration with Dr. Theresa Hamlin, associate executive director at the The Center for Discovery.
