Brain is the most extraordinary and complex creation of the universe. Besides being the control center of the body, it is also the store house of memories and hopes. It orchestrates the symphony of consciousness that gives one purpose and passion, motion and emotion. The brain produces electrical signals, which together with chemical reactions, let the parts of the body communicate. Nerves send these signals throughout the body.
The functioning of the brain is miraculous. It is to study the workings of this organ that the UT Dallas Center of BrainHealth was formed. When the brain refuses to function properly, it results in brain disorders. The UT Dallas Center of BrainHealth has already performed significant work on brain as well as its disorders. One such discoveries of the Center is the Horizontal approach, which uncovers the commonalities in brain repair. It is a unique approach with characteristics like Multidimensional diagnosis, Groundbreaking Cognitive Interventions, Multimodality Function Brain Imaging and Brain Biomarkers. The approach is different from the others as it focuses on both children as well as adults, focus across brain concerns in diseases and injury and provide long term follow up.
The center has a team of scientists and clinicians involved in devising breakthroughs in autism, attention deficit disorder, Alzheimer’s and other significant brain issues. The center is assisted in its efforts by a board of directors. The Leadership Council includes Sallie and Frederic Asche, Jr.Claudia and Dennis Berman, Toni and Norman Brinker, Dianne Cash, Theresa and David Disiere, Patsy Donors, John Harbin, Matrice Ellis-Kirk, among others as its members
