CHINTA
Centre for High Impact Neuroscience and Translational Applications
Neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases represent a major global and growing public health threat. Thus, there is an urgent, unmet need for drug therapies that will prolong and will maintain/improve quality of life. The continued failure to discover new medicines reflects bottlenecks at: (i) pivotal stages of drug development, and (ii) new, interdisciplinary approaches in neuroscience discovery.
We are planning to create a new institute in the area of translational neuroscience. This institute, Centre for High Impact Neuroscience and Translational Applications or CHINTA to be based in TCG CREST, will innovate and deliver an integrated approach to solving the above mentioned, difficult challenges. Key to its success will be a network of experts/partnerships distributed across leading international institutions.
Focus on
Research Areas

CHINTA
Neurodegenerative and Neuropsychiatric diseases are global public health threats. Absence of interdisciplinary approach is one of the main reason for failure to discover new medicines and therapies to improve the quality of life. The core research area of CHINTA focuses on this translational neuroscience from discovery to delivery.
Publications
CHINTA plans to come up with insightful publications based on its researches and experiments, which will broaden the knowledge of the global scientific and medical community and help in coming up with new approaches to translational neuroscience.
