Team Mount Sinai's Story
We're walking on behalf of the researchers, clinicians, and staff affiliated with the Mood and Personality Disorder Research Program at the Icahn School of Medicine Mount Sinai (https://icahn.mssm.edu/researc... ). We harness cutting-edge neuroscience research tools to expand our understanding of personality disorders in order to develop better psychological and pharmacological treatments, diagnostic tools, and ultimately effective approaches to prevention. We're fundraising to show our support for the BPD community and the critical resources that Emotions Matter provides.
