Center for BrainHealth at The University of Texas at Dallas is a research institute uniquely focused on brain health fitness by providing baseline testing, comprehensive assessments, customized interventions, education, outbound programs, and, most importantly, advanced research translated into immediate clinical treatment. [1], the Center for BrainHealth is one the first institutions to capitalize on the “next frontier” in scientific exploration - the brain. [2]. Center for BrainHealth is the first and only facility to develop and administer the BrainHealth Physical [3], a benchmark test of cognitive reserve in pivotal areas of higher order mental function for the purpose of mapping and preventing cognitive changes and decline in individuals. Under Dr. Chapman’s leadership, the vision for cognitive brain research corroboratively linked with clinical practice has attracted leading scientists and researchers from across the country and around the world and has led to collaborations with Johns Hopkins, UC Berkley, Rutgers, Harvard, and Stanford.
