Why does a brain injury at 25 raise the risk of Alzheimer's at 70? We know the link is real. We still don't know the mechanism. Mapping that chain is how we'll spot risk earlier and intervene before symptoms start. #ENDALZ

June is #AphasiaAwarenessMonth. Aphasia is a language disorder caused by brain injury, most often stroke or TBI. It affects how a person speaks, reads, or writes, but not their intelligence. The thoughts are still there. When you talk with someone with aphasia, give them time.
June is Alzheimer's & Brain Awareness Month. Brain injury and Alzheimer's are more connected than we once thought, and how an injury today surfaces as decline years later is exactly what some of our BRAIN Center members study. #ENDALZ #BRAINCenter
