In high school, Dr.

Jeremy Tanner saw the toll his grandmother’s dementia took on her and his family. His feelings of helplessness fueled a lifelong mission to find answers for families facing neurodegenerative diseases. Today, as a neurologist and researcher at the Glenn Biggs Institute for Alzheimer’s and Neurodegenerative Diseases at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, Jeremy leads LBDA’s Clin-SYN biomarkers study. Jeremy says, “The Lewy Body Dementia Association has played a critical role in bringing together the patient community, scientific community, and industry partners to move research forward faster.” Help us help those living with #Lewybodydementia (LBD) to live well. By making a generous donation today, you are accelerating LBD awareness, advancing research for early diagnosis and improved care, and providing comprehensive education and compassionate support for those in need. Read Jeremy’s story and more journeys of courage and purpose, and give today. 🔗 in our bio. #Dementia #DementiaResearch #Neurodegeneration #Memory
