Mega-Brain

We are involved with The Gathering Place, an interfaith organization that provides respite care for folks with Alzheimer's and dementia so that their caregivers can get a much needed 4 hour break. There is NEVER any charge for this, and we currently have 8 Gathering Places in Brazoria County. As part of our mission, we educate the public about different issues and the latest research on Alzheimer's and dementia. We have Awareness Fairs, Brain Camps, and provide education to health professionals. The Mega-Brain is 18’ x 14’ x 12’, and it’s an anatomically correct inflatable brain that people can walk through. Brain tour guides can demonstrate normal brain function and point out how different diseases and disorders affect the brain. The Mega-Brain has appeared on Dr. Oz, and makes TV appearances wherever it goes. We also feel that Mega-Brain would be useful in helping folks learn more about strokes, head trauma, and other maladies of the brain.
