The Brains for Dementia Research
The Brains for Dementia Research is a project that collects brain tissue from individuals who have experienced dementia, with their consent. Researchers study these brains to better understand the biological changes associated with dementia, such as Alzheimer’s disease. This knowledge helps identify potential causes and develop improved treatments or preventive strategies. The project also involves donating brain tissue after death, which is invaluable for advancing scientific research. Overall, it aims to improve understanding of dementia, support future discoveries, and ultimately find ways to delay, treat, or prevent the condition.
