Center for Nervous System Repair

A research collaboration between Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School brings together investigators with common interests in nervous system repair, targeted at translating this work into benefit for patients over the coming decades.

The MGH-HMS Center for Nervous System Repair (CNSR), based in the MGH Department of Neurosurgery, has components both "within-walls" and "beyond walls," according to center director Jeffrey Macklis, Associate Professor of Neurology (Neuroscience) at MGH-HMS. Initially, it includes Macklis and five other faculty located within the center's walls, along with eight or nine faculty members in other HMS departments. Their interests include differentiation of neurons and other nervous system cells, neural precursors and stem cells, neural transplantation, axonal guidance and outgrowth, and gene delivery.
The center occupies newly constructed and renovated space in MGH's Edwards and Wellman Buildings.

"The new space, facilities, and intellectual focus for collaboration and interdisciplinary work allows more rapid progress than any one lab could achieve, along with venturesome expansions of our work," Macklis said. "The allows us to pursue each lab's central research directions while also building a larger vision and enterprise toward bringing basic neuroscience research eventually toward nervous system repair."
