Innovative care, programs and research for disorders of the brain and spine
The impact of our Neuroscience Research Center is felt across HealthPartners and the community. That’s because we conduct research in partnership with neurological care. Our studies take place in HealthPartners Neuroscience Center, Struthers Parkinson’s Center, Regions Hospital, Methodist Hospital as well as several clinics. This connection between research and care offers patients access to innovative programs that improve outcomes.
We are active in clinical trials – testing drugs as well as delivery methods. We also study technology, yoga, mindfulness, acupuncture and exercise as ways to improve pain management, cognition and mobility. And we connect patients with programs and education to support them and their families after recovery from a stroke and other cognitive disorders with care, research, community resources and caretaker support.
Key areas
Advancing clinical trials
Our clinical research aims to better prevent, treat and ultimately cure life-altering neurological diseases. Trials in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, essential tremors, stroke and more offer hope to the many patients and families affected by these conditions.
