University of Central Florida CereBank: Brain Tissue Donation for Research

The University of Central Florida CereBank is establishing a collection of donated brain tissue and other biological samples to support research into brain diseases. This study is observational, meaning researchers will collect and study these donations without providing any specific treatments. The goal is to help improve how brain diseases, like dementia, are diagnosed and treated. You can join if you are 18 years or older and can provide informed consent. If you are unable to consent, a legally authorized representative can do so for you. The study aims to collect donations for research and educational purposes over a long period, up to 75 years. The current recruitment status is unclear.
