THE MISSION 
The European Brain Research Area project — EBRA — was created as a catalysing initiative for brain research stakeholders (researchers, clinicians, patients, governments, funders and public institutions) to streamline and better co-ordinate brain research across Europe while fostering global initiatives.
STRATEGIC LEVEL
MAPPING OF THE EUROPEAN BRAIN RESEARCH LANDSCAPE
An overview of the scale and scope of brain research activities funded in the EU framework programme and the funding initiatives of JPND, NEURON and HBP has been created.
OPERATIONAL LEVEL
EBRA’S CLUSTER 
The EBRA Clusters aim to promote cooperation and exchange between brain research projects; to enable and enhance European and international collaboration; and to develop research communities in all areas of brain research. The call targets a number of cluster types: Potential, Emerging, Consolidated and Global. (basic research, clinical research, methodological approaches under a common topic and disease area).
PROMOTING OPEN SCIENCE 
EBRA aims to promote open science by organizing workshops, meetings, and events. Those activities promote external collaborations and foster exchange within research communities and with stakeholders; enhance the translation and exploitation of results; accelerate innovation; address data-related challenges; promote links to and use of infrastructures; and promote quality assurance in research.
