TheBrainMatters.org Informs Patients, Caregivers on Neurologic Disorders
TheBrainMatters.org, the AAN Foundation’s redesigned patient and caregiver website, now features in-depth, easily searchable information on a host of disease states from NINDS, including such supporting materials as AAN patient guideline summaries, patient stories from Neurology Now®, and AAN Press Books, and a video on Parkinson’s disease. Users can get tips on how to prepare for an office visit, contact information for voluntary health agencies, and information on the importance of research and how to support the future of neurology.

Visitors to the site are encouraged to participate in the Buy a Brain fundraising campaign at
www.TheBrainMatters.org/buyabrain. For each $5 brain purchase, you will receive a “virtual brain” icon that will appear on the site, displaying your name and the name of someone you choose to honor. One hundred percent of the proceeds go to support research into neurologic disorders.
