Welcome to CONNECT-TBI
CONNECT-TBI is a unique, international, multi-center, multi-investigator project. Our goal is to support researchers investigating the pathology of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its outcomes, including TBI related neurodegeneration (TReND).
As a ‘Center Without Walls’, CONNECT-TBI brings together a network of expert neuropathologists, clinicians and academics across 13 leading institutions to:
1. coordinate existing research tissue archives and standardize procedures for new tissue donations
2. streamline access to these resources and make them available for global research
Established in 2019, CONNECT-TBI is funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) and the National Institute on Aging (NIA).
We are confident that CONNECT-TBI will transform global research and accelerate our understanding of acute TBI and the association between TBI and neurodegenerative disease, including Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease related disorders (AD/ADRD).
