Zombies aren’t the only ones looking for brains. Used brains of all kinds are needed for medical research to advance the discovery of better treatments and cures for brain diseases, disorders, and injuries. If this interests you, check out the Brain Donor Project at https://braindonorproject.org/.

This topic is especially timely because there is a campaign by the American Brain Coalition to designate May 7th as Brain Donation Awareness Day. A resolution has already been introduced in Congress by Representatives Earl Blumenauer (D-OR) and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA). To support this initiative, go to https://www.americanbraincoalition.org/page/ContactCongress. 

An estimated one of six people is suffering from a neurological disorder or disease, including autism and dementia, so this research is critically needed for the benefit of us all.
