The neuroscience market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $54.01 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing demand for advanced microscopy systems, increasing integration of ai in neuroscience research, expanding applications of neuroinformatics, rising adoption of brain-mapping tools, development of next-generation electrophysiology devices. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of neuro-microscopy platforms, increasing use of electrophysiology technologies, growth in neuro-cellular manipulation techniques, expansion of whole brain imaging applications, advancements in neuroscience research tools & instruments.
Increased incidences of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease, are expected to drive the growth of the neuroscience market. Neurological disorders encompass a wide range of medical conditions that primarily impact the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that mainly affects the brain, resulting in a gradual decline in cognitive abilities and memory. Neuroscience plays a crucial role in understanding and managing Alzheimer’s disease (AD). By examining the structure and functions of the nervous system, neuroscientists are gaining valuable insights into the causes of AD and are developing new approaches for its diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. For instance, in May 2024, according to a report by the Alzheimer’s Association, a U.S.-based nonprofit organization focused on Alzheimer’s care, support, and research, the number of Americans aged 65 and above living with Alzheimer’s dementia increased from 6.5 million in 2022 to an estimated 6.9 million in 2024. Therefore, the rising incidence of neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease is fueling the neuroscience market.
Major companies operating in the neuroscience market are focusing on the development of innovative technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, to advance neuroscience research and applications. Artificial intelligence allows machines to replicate and, in some cases, surpass human cognitive capabilities, while machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence. AI-based models are designed to perform intelligence-driven tasks, offering new insights into how similar processes are regulated within the human brain. For example, in February 2024, Koninklijke Philips N.V., a Netherlands-based technology company, in collaboration with Synthetic MR, a Sweden-based MRI software company, introduced Smart Quant Neuro 3D, an advanced solution for diagnosing and evaluating brain disorders such as multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, and dementia. This solution combines Philips’ AI-powered SmartSpeed technology, the 3D SyntAc application, and Synthetic MR’s SyMRI NEURO 3D software, enabling healthcare providers to achieve improved diagnostic accuracy, greater confidence, and better patient outcomes. Philips holds exclusive rights to offer SyMRI NEURO 3D on its MR systems.
In August 2024, AbbVie Inc., a U.S.-based biopharmaceutical company, finalized the acquisition of Cerevel Therapeutics for approximately US$ 8.7 billion. Through this acquisition, AbbVie seeks to substantially strengthen its neuroscience pipeline by obtaining access to Cerevel’s clinical-stage and preclinical assets focused on psychiatric and neurological conditions, including schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease, mood disorders, and epilepsy. Cerevel Therapeutics is a U.S.-based company with a robust pipeline of potential first-in-class and best-in-class neuropsychiatric therapies.
