New Mission Statement
The principal mission of NABIS is moving brain injury science into practice. Scientific advances achieve their greatest impact when they are translated into evidence-based best practices, innovative clinical care, informed policy, and meaningful real-world implementation.

By fostering the translation of research and scientific discovery into practice, NABIS empowers professionals to improve outcomes for individuals with brain injuries, advance standards of care, and drive meaningful progress across the field. Through partnership, innovation, and scientific leadership, NABIS works to bridge the gap between discovery and implementation, accelerating the impact of brain injury research and advancing the field throughout North America.
