"Dr. Dirk Keene, a professor and the director of neuropathology at UW Medicine who leads the brain bank, said if federal funding dries up, he’ll go to almost any end to 'honor the gift' of people's donation." https://t.co/Cvqx6Z5rP1
University of Washington BRaIN Lab had a great time participating in the second annual BrainFest at the Pacific Science Center. We had human brains on display for visitors to see and touch! Our team had a lot of fun teaching neuroanatomy and celebrating Brain Awareness Week.
BrainFest at Pacific Science Center rocked! 🧠 ⚡️ 🤘
Thank you to all the young scientists who joined our cerebral celebration and all the volunteers, including from our partners at @UWMedicine, @UW, @ISBsci, and many more!

A plaque honoring the memory of Mathew Dahl has been placed in the Harborview Research and Training Building. Matthew donated his brain for research to support a better understanding of the long-term consequences of traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Flavia Ernau presented a study on integrating neuropathology in an atlas of the brains of people with #Alzheimer's disease. She presented her findings at the UW Undergraduate Research Symposium, part of the May 2024 Innovation Month at the University of Washington.
Emily Fridman presented a study on the role of pTDP-43 in brains of people with #Alzheimer's disease. She presented her findings at the UW Undergraduate Research Symposium, part of the May 2024 Innovation Month at the University of Washington.
