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.

What scientists think about Parkinson's research

A good followup question needed for stroke scientists. My comment would be that stroke research is too scattershot. No one seems to be following any plan or strategy. And then there are the ones trying for the moon shot and bypassing all the intermediate steps in between. That would be the stem cell researchers.

Dear ,
What do scientists think about the future of Parkinson's research? 
On November 3, The Michael J. Fox Foundation convened its ninth annual Parkinson's Disease Therapeutics Conference to explore that question. As we work to further these innovations and foster collaboration to speed progress, your support is critical
Nearly 300 researchers and business professionals came together to share the latest in Parkinson's disease (PD) research advances. These include progress toward our ultimate goal -- a treatment to slow or slow disease progression -- and technology-enabled solutions to help people living with PD today. They include:
  • Use of light to turn cells "on and off" in the brain to address motor symptoms  
  • Indicators for PD-related memory and thinking problems via MRI
  • A promising genetic target for the development of a disease-modifying treatment 
I invite you to read more about this invigorating conference and to donate today to help MJFF push forward these advances and others at the forefront of science and technology. 
Our work is not completed until we've found a cure, and every dollar you give brings us closer.
Thank you,
Todd Sherer, PhDCEO
