Brain is a complex organ which is our primary control center. The organ comprises of billions of nerves that process information from our bodies, operate internal organs, generate thoughts and emotion. The aim of institutes like the UT Dallas institute of BrainHealth is to understand the complexity of this organ. Its mission is to unite brain research and brain therapies in an active partnership to build healthy minds and restore health to injured and diseased minds. The Center has found many unique approaches uncover commonalities in brain repair.

The team at the institute works to find new breakthroughs in autism, attention deficit disorder, Alzheimer’s and other significant brain issues. The Center is guided and assisted by its respected board of directors. The foundation’s board of directors comprises of a Leadership Council and an Advisory Board. The Leadership Council includes Sallie and Frederic Asche, Jr.Claudia and Dennis Berman, Toni and Norman Brinker, Dianne Cash, Theresa and David Disiere (http://www.brainhealth.utdallas.edu/about/board-mem.html/), Patsy Donors, John Harbin, Matrice Ellis-Kirk, among others as its members.

The center promotes research, treatment, academic training and is one of the few facilities in the United States which provides a continued follow-up to enhance and monitor functional recovery in brain injury, brain disease and complications of normal aging. The center is discovering commonalities across brain problem that are yielding similarities in brain repair mechanisms and resulting in new treatments for improving life for patients with brain injuries and diseases. The center aims, first and foremost, at solving complicated mental disabilities by translating scientific findings into treatment

Seat belts reduce injuries and deaths in motor vehicle crashes, but previous studies have found that blacks buckle up significantly less often than whites. An article in the August issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine by researchers from Meharry Medical College may shed some new light on the racial disparity in seatbelt use, and how it could be eliminated.
