Since its inception, research spurred by the organization has grown in volume and sophistication, including controlled treatment studies and studies of pathophysiology and etiology. Many new research findings are the direct result of the organization's "active facilitation of large collaborative research consortia in genetics, neuro-imaging, clinical trials, and the behavioral sciences", and their "concerted effort to identify current research advances, disseminate them among the scientific and clinical communities, and establish networks of basic and clinical scientists from all over the world".
Since its founding, research driven by the organization has grown in both quantity and depth, including controlled treatment studies and investigations into pathophysiology and etiology. Many new research findings are directly related to the organization's "active facilitation of large collaborative research consortia in genetics, neuro-imaging, clinical trials, and behavioral sciences", as well as their "concerted efforts to identify current research advances, disseminate them among scientists and clinicians worldwide, and establish global networks involving basic and clinical researchers from all over the world".
