Lieber Institute for Brain Development
Share
The Lieber Institute for Brain Development (LIBD) was established in 2010 through the historic gift of Constance & Stephen Lieber and Milton & Tamar Maltz as an independent, not-for-profit medical research institute with end-to-end capabilities under one roof. LIBD translates genetic insights into breakthrough treatments utilizing unparalleled resources in human brain tissue and human cell lines t

Our research suggests that many of the genetic and biological changes linked to schizophrenia may happen during early brain development, long before symptoms appear in the teen or adult years.
Lieber scientists are discovering that small disruptions in how the brain develops and forms connections may quietly shape a person’s risk over time. Understanding those early changes could help researchers identify schizophrenia sooner, develop better treatments, and eventually create ways to prevent the disorder altogether.
Imagine how much more supported people and families could feel if help began early in life, instead of only after a serious crisis.
