University of Wisconsin-Madison: Wisconsin Brain Donor Program (WBDP)
The Wisconsin Brain Donor Program (WBDP) stores brain and other tissues/samples (e.g. blood
and CSF) from deceased individuals who have participated in longitudinal research studies,
as well as other select participants. These individuals have donated their tissues in order
to aid scientific research. Through the collection of central and peripheral nervous tissues
as well as (in select cases) skeletal muscle tissue, the WBDP strives to advance the
knowledge of diseases of memory disorders, such as Alzheimer's Disease. Brain donations are
needed from healthy individuals, as well as those affected by diseases of the nervous
system.

The WBDP strives to provide well-characterized tissues/samples to researchers. The WBDP is
aligned with the longitudinal research study of the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center
(ADRC) in Madison, Wisconsin as well as other studies associated with the ADRC.
