Why Choose HBSFRC?

The Human Brain and Spinal Fluid Resource Center (HBSFRC) is a brain bank for neuroscientists. The Center collects, stores, and distributes the highest quality of pre- and post-mortem tissues, including brain, spinal cord, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), serum, blood cells and urine, to be used by scientific investigators of neurological and psychiatric diseases.

The most vital part of the HBSFRC is the Brain Donor Program. Volunteers and patients who elect to become donors support scientists in their pursuit of improving human health by granting them the opportunity to conduct life-saving research.
