    A Lasting Legacy: How Brain Donation Is Advancing Autism Research

    • While organ donation can help save a life, brain donation can help save thousands. Specifically for autism, brain donations are helping researchers uncover the biological causes of the disorder to improve the quality of life for future generations. Our experts highlight the critical need for donation awareness and participation.

    Guests:

    • Dr. David Amaral, scientific director, Autism BrainNet, Director of Research, UC Davis MIND Institute
    • Kathy Stein, donor’s loved one

    Fighting The Status Quo: The Rebels Who Changed Public Health Forever

    • Prevention is built into so many aspects of our lives, from coffee cup lids to seatbelts. However, many of these life-saving innovations were historically met with extreme public and professional resistance. Our expert explores "preventioneers" – the people who defied taboo and skepticism to transform how we protect ourselves from disease and disaster.

    Guest: Dr. Barry Davis, professor emeritus, University of Texas School of Public Health, author, The Preventioneers
