Institute of Higher Nervous Activity

The Institute of Higher Nervous Activity is a research facility of the Russian Academy of Sciences focused on neurophysiology and brain function. The building contains multiple floors with laboratory spaces and working areas designed for scientific investigation.

The facility was established as part of Soviet scientific initiatives and developed into a leading center for neurophysiology research. It remained active under the Academy of Sciences framework and continually expanded its research capabilities.

Scientists at the institute regularly publish their findings in international journals and participate in global neuroscience conferences.

The institute is typically accessible to visitors on weekdays, though advance arrangement may be required. The facility has a cafeteria for visitors and is easily accessible by public transportation.

Researchers at the institute recently discovered a new pain signal receptor, neuropilin-1, which interacts with nerve growth factor pathways.
