About Us
The Perron Institute, formerly the Western Australian Neuroscience Research Institute, is Western Australia’s longest established medical research institute. The Perron Institute is at the forefront of international research on muscle, nerve and brain conditions, and has been since its establishment as the Australian Neuromuscular Research Institute in 1982. Its many achievements include contributing to major breakthroughs in the discovery of genes causing disease, and providing the latest in rehabilitative technologies including robotics.
The Perron Institute’s goal is to be an international leader in translating neurological research into treatment for the benefit of the community.
One of the Perron Institute’s special strengths lies in its links between the institute’s laboratory research and its specialist neurology clinics; a translational research pathway. This means being able to translate research findings from the laboratory into a better quality of life for patients and their families in the form of new diagnostics, treatments and improved ways of delivering services to the community.
