The Wyss Center is a not-for-profit neurotechnology research foundation in Geneva, Switzerland.

The Center was founded by Hansjörg Wyss, who previously created the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering in the United States. The founding director of the Wyss Center was neuroscientist Professor John P. Donoghue, who is best known for his work on human brain computer interfaces, brain function and plasticity. The mission of the Wyss Center is to advance understanding of the brain to realize therapies and improve lives.

The Center is based at Campus Biotech (in the former Merck Serono building) located in Geneva, Switzerland. The CEO of the Wyss Center is Erwin Böttinger, who assumed responsibility on 1 April 2023.

The Wyss Center works in the areas of neurobiology, neuroimaging and neurotechnology to develop clinical solutions from neuroscience research.

Lightsheet microscopes in the Advanced Lightsheet Imaging Center (ALICe) can image neurons within whole organs at high spatial and temporal resolution.
