The Emotional Brain Institute (EBI), established April 16, 2007, is a joint initiative between New York University and New York State. The goal of EBI is to understand emotions and their impact on mind and behavior. A multi-disciplinary group of researchers is investigating the origins of normal and pathological emotions from the level of mind and behavior to neural systems, cell activity, molecules, and genes. In researching these topics, EBI investigators use state of the art approaches in the study of brain, mind, and behavior. EBI researchers are located at the Nathan Kline Institute, in Orangeburg, NY, and in Manhattan at the Washington Square Campus of NYU and the NYU Langone School of Medicine.
