US EditionThe 10,000 Brains Project Launches the "Path-ND" Digital Brain Banking Program to Transform Neurodegenerative Disease Research
- The 10,000 Brains Project announced on May 20, 2025, in Oakland, California, the launch of Path-ND, a digital brain banking program.
- This initiative arose from the urgent need to improve research on frontotemporal dementia and Parkinson's disease through large-scale digitization of brain tissue.
- Path-ND aims to convert over 5,000 brain tissue samples into digital format within two years, funded by new collaborations, to build the largest dataset focused on frontotemporal dementia and to incorporate Parkinson’s disease brain specimens.
- With $3 million from the Kissick Family Foundation and Michael J. Fox Foundation support, the program aims to make high-resolution brain images widely accessible, aiding research into multiple neurodegenerative diseases.
- By transforming how research connects across disorders, Path-ND expects to accelerate breakthroughs toward personalized care and improved treatment options for devastating diseases like FTD and Parkinson’s.
