Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Design a Brain Experiment Competition

The Dana Foundation is holding a competition for high school students. Talk your teacher into this, they have to submit it. So if you have one or a grandchild of that age have them put together a proposal. You should be able to come up with ideas, if you can't email me and I'll propose one of the dozens percolating. By Jan. 19 so start your brains. Lets flood them with stroke research ideas.

    Dean,

    Hello from the Dana Foundation! Thanks for getting the word out about our competition on your blog. We are very excited to read all the creative brain research ideas.

    We do have one small correction to your post. If you look at the guidelines, entries must come from high school science teachers, not individual students. The reason for this is we want students to work on these research proposals together in their high school science classrooms.

    Regardless, please continue to tell all the high school students you know about the competition and encourage their classes and teachers to participate. Once again, thanks a lot for getting the word out Dean, we look forward to some brillant ideas in stroke research.
    Best,

    The Dana Foundation
