New research is offering a closer look at how Lewy body dementia (LBD) may be identified. 🧠

A Cleveland Clinic study found that a biomarker called α-synuclein, measured in cerebrospinal fluid, was detected in 72% of people with clinically diagnosed LBD compared with 4% of healthy participants.

While more research is needed, these findings may help advance our understanding of Lewy body dementia and improve how it is diagnosed.

A decade-plus partnership advancing the future of brain health. 🧠

UFC® and Cleveland Clinic are renewing their longstanding collaboration through 2030, with a $1 million contribution from UFC supporting the Professional Athletes Brain Health Study at Cleveland Clinic Nevada’s Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health.

Now entering its 15th year, the landmark study has enrolled more than 900 active and retired athletes and continues to examine the long-term effects of repetitive head impacts, including factors that may contribute to CTE.

The partnership is also expanding, with WWE® and Zuffa Boxing athletes now eligible to participate in the study.

Led by Charles Bernick, M.D., the research is helping advance our understanding of brain health and provide athletes with information that can support informed decisions about their health—during their careers and beyond.

Here’s to continued research, collaboration and progress in athlete brain health. 💙

Today, the City of Las Vegas honored the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health and renowned architect Frank Gehry in recognition of World Architecture Day. 🏛️🧠⁠
⁠
Held at the iconic Keep Memory Alive Event Center, Mayor Shelley Berkley presented an official proclamation recognizing the building’s architectural distinction and its enduring impact on brain healthcare, research, and the Las Vegas community.⁠
⁠
We were honored to hear from Larry Ruvo, Founder and Chairman of Keep Memory Alive, and Dr. Dylan Wint, Medical Director of Cleveland Clinic Nevada, who shared the significance of the Center’s architecture and, more importantly, the care, research, and hope happening within its walls.⁠

Since opening in 2009, the Center has cared for more than 7,500 patients and families while advancing research and education focused on Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and other neurological disorders.⁠

What began as a bold architectural vision by Frank Gehry has become a landmark of patient-centered care in Las Vegas.⁠
