The NIH NeuroBioBank (NBB) is a federated program supporting seven brain banks across the United States.
The NIH NeuroBioBank supports seven brain banks in the United States. The Brain Donor Project provides information, outreach and pre-registration, then refers interested donors to the appropriate brain bank for registration and guidance.
Why this matters
People with ALS/MND and their families who are considering brain donation can use the Brain Donor Project and the ALL ALS brain-donation page to learn about the process and identify a participating brain bank. Donation arrangements are coordinated with the donor’s next of kin when the time comes.
Limitations and context
This information comes from a community post rather than a primary research study or formal organisational announcement. It describes the donation process but does not provide research findings or explain how donated tissue will be used.
