One Brain's journey

The Center for Stroke Recovery in Toronto assembled a dream team of neuroscienctists to employ the latest findings in neuroscience to help stroke victims recover.   Much of the effort afforded by a $10 million donation from the Heart and Stroke Foundation will focus on the association between exercise and brain health.  Dr. Dale Corbett, CEO and Scientific Director of the center says, “We’re excited about the significance of how exercise can improve brain health by changing the blood flow to the brain to speed up recovery after a stroke.”  Research will focus on learning what intensity and duration of exercise will bring the best results in getting the brain to reorganize and compensate for stroke damage.
