Good afternoon, Chicago.

Northwestern Medicine has received a $25 million donation from Kent and Liz Dauten and their family foundation to create a new behavioral health institute.

The Northwestern Medicine Dauten Behavioral Health Institute will aim to better coordinate care and improve screening of patients, and will focus on novel diagnostic and treatment approaches across the Northwestern system. It will also include programs for patients with complex diagnoses and disorders. Its first major initiative will be a Bipolar Disorder Center of Excellence, which will focus on providing high quality care and accelerating research into treating patients with the disorder.

“Our family’s philanthropy has prioritized the field of brain science and mental health where there is an explosion in demand for care and an urgent need to find better treatments,” Kent Dauten said.

Chicago Bears Q&A: How is this season different from Matt Nagy’s ‘fluky’ NFC North title in 2018?

The first-place Chicago Bears — that might take some getting used to — will seek their eighth win in nine games Sunday when the Pittsburgh Steelers, with or without Aaron Rodgers, visit Soldier Field.
