The Brain Donor Project

The Brain Donor Project, based in Naples, FL, is dedicated to advancing neurological research by facilitating brain donations from individuals, whether they have a neurological disorder or possess a healthy brain. Founded in memory of Gene Armentrout, who succumbed to Lewy Body Dementia, the project aims to address the growing need for brain tissue to develop treatments and cures for various neurological diseases.

The initiative highlights the importance of brain donation, informing potential donors that healthy brains are essential for scientific studies and that such donations come at no cost to families. The organization emphasizes that brain donation does not preclude traditional organ donation and guarantees that the process will not affect funeral arrangements, allowing for open casket options.
