Neurological Conditions & Brain Function - PDF Neurological Brochure

The brain is the last and grandest biological frontier, the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe. It contains hundreds of billions of cells interlinked through trillions of connections. The brain boggles the mind. The diseases that disrupt brain function are among the most painful and destructive we know – Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, Huntington’s disease, and others. They invade the mind, tearing at the fabric of family life and shattering the attributes that make us most human. These diseases are the enemy; neuroscientists are fighters on the front lines . . .
    -- James D. Watson (in Discovering the Brain, 1992)
