our community through clinical outreach and meaningful service-learning projects. We’re transforming the student experience by giving students access to our state-of-the-art Maryland Neuroimaging Center, and by forging valuable relationships with government agencies and research labs. We study terrorism and advise the government on how best to prevent attacks. Through partnerships with the National Institute of Mental Health and with Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, we help people facing mental health issues, as well as soldiers returning from combat. Our department turns imagination into innovation by recommending sound social and health care policies and developing cutting-edge research techniques, tools and approaches.
