Promoting and supporting vital research into the causes, treatment, prevention and cure of neurological diseases.

With the help of our donors, the BRT supports world-class research at UCL's Institute of Neurology (IoN), London, and provides well over £1.5 million a year in research grants. Funding vital research
The Brain Research Trust (BRT) is one of the UK's leading charities in the field of neurological research. We were established in 1971 to promote and support research into the causes, treatment, prevention and cure of neurological diseases. We do this by funding basic and clinical research at University College London's world-renowned Institute of Neurology (IoN). Since the BRT was founded, we have given over £30 million to the IoN to help finance their research programmes and PhD studentships.
