Tish Hevel is the Founder/CEO of The Brain Donor Project, a unique nonprofit that exclusively supports the brain banks of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the NeuroBioBank. The Brain Donor Project was established in late 2016 to raise awareness of the critical need for donated brain tissue to advance the science of brain disease and to simplify the process of becoming a brain donor. To date, nearly 18,000 people have taken steps to become a brain donor. They represent more than 200 categories of brain disease, and almost half have healthy (or control) brains. The Brain Donor Project was inspired by the death of Hevel's dad, Gene, who died from Lewy Bodies Dementia and was a brain donor himself.
