The Brown Foundation Institute of Molecular Medicine for the Prevention of Human Diseases is a research institute that seeks to investigate the cause of human diseases at the cellular and molecular levels, using DNA and protein technologies to elucidate disease mechanisms.

Its development and progress are of particular interest for future planning in the increasingly important area of clinical research. The Institute endeavors to design methods of rational therapy and, wherever possible, strategies for the prevention of human diseases.
