Comprehensive Center for Brain Health
The Comprehensive Center for Brain Health at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine is a research and clinical unit in the Department of Neurology. The Vision of the Program is to provide comprehensive clinical care, conduct cutting edge research, and offer outstanding educational, training, and outreach programs on healthy brain aging and neurodegenerative disease.
Healthy Brain Initiative (HBI)
HBI is an ongoing project that is actively recruiting community-dwelling independent adults with no complaints or mild concerns about their brain health. This project aims to develop a dementia prevention initiative using a precision medicine approach with personalized tailored interventions in deeply phenotyped individuals.

Current Grants
A comprehensive, customized focus on prevention and health, rather than disease, is at the heart of our work at the CCBH. We’re on a mission to better understand how the aging brain works and design treatments and prevention plans that will result in longer, better lives. Through comprehensive research, clinical care, outreach, education, and training, we seek to prevent or delay the onset of these devastating diseases by 50 percent, curbing the suffering of hundreds of thousands of Americans.
