The Melbourne Brain Centre recently opened its doors as the home of the Austin campus Florey Neuroscience Institutes. Which had me wondering how important a building is to research. Looking farther afield there seems to be much interest from the governments of developed countries in dedicating institutes to research of the brain and brain diseases. These buildings come with custom fittings from labs to research spaces and create spaces for collaboration between stroke, dementia, epilepsy, Parkinson's, Huntington's, motor neuron disease etc.
And what could be more important than discipline collaboration? In stroke alone there is so much collaboration between disciplines, and diseases. In the coming editions of the journal we are running a Stroke and Vascular Dementia series, edited by Dr Amy Brodtmann, who is currently specializing in this very important and interesting field. IJS, following the global trend will bring you more and more collaboration in the future.
