Donating your brain

Diseases of the brain are increasingly common in the UK doe to an ageing population suffering from
conditions such as Parkinsons and Alzheimers disease. There are no known cures for many of
these diseases, so high priority is given to research seeking to understand them better - potentially
leading to new treatments.
Scientists study human tissue to improve their understanding of how diseases start and progress,
and what keeps us healthy. Research such as this often leads to different ways of diagnosing
disease and can help develop new treatments.
To ensure research is thorough, it is also extremely important to have access to brain tissue from
deceased people who did not have the diseases. This is known as control tissue and it is crucial
that scientists have access to this so that they can compare it directly with tissue from a person with
a disease. These valuable donations are essential for developing new and better treatments for
people with diseases and in the search for a cure.
Brain donation has helped with the discovery and treatment of diseases such as schizophrenia,
Alzheimers disease, Parkinsons disease and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.
The role of the HTA in brain donation

The HTA licenses organisations that store human tissue, including brains, for research. We believe
that good regulation supports good science, which in turn improves healthcare. The HTA ensures
that tissue is removed and stored in an appropriate and well-managed way. Our regulation ensures
that the public and researchers can have confidence that the wishes of individual patients and their
families are respected. Medical research needs the best quality tissue to work on, and the HTAs
regulation helps ensure it is stored to high standards.
Please note that there is not an out-of-hours telephone service for brain donation enquiries. Please
leave a message on our answer machine.
How to donate your brain for research

The following human tissue banks accept brain and spinal tissue for research. As well as needing
particular types of tissue from people with the conditions named below, they also accept donations
of brain and spinal tissue from people without these conditions as controls to the research.
