Dr. Robert Spengler and Dr. Tracey Ignatowski WOW! HE IS ON OUR TEAM. Leonard Marshall should be in the NFL Hall of Fame! “Brain-Body Research Institute” is an innovative and leading research and education center designed to incubate new discoveries, technologies and treatments that will improve the lives of tens of thousands if not more and eliminate wide-spread suffering. The BBRI web site is www.brain-body.org It is our hope that the medical and scientific communities will be inspired and driven by the quest for knowledge, understanding, and alleviation of needless suffering and thus embrace suppressing TNF selectively in the brain, not only for brain injury-induced pathologies and subsequent disabilities, but also for hard-to-treat neurological dysfunctional conditions.

😂 😊 😃 😄 My many years of research along with Dr. Robert Spengler, and more recently with Dr. Edward Tobinick, has shown that anti-TNF drugs can reduce and ameliorate an inflammatory response within the brain. We do know that excess or prolonged inflammation can cause damage to tissues, but in particular, the brain parenchyma. Excess inflammation is usually abnormal, and the administration of anti-TNF drugs can reduce or arrest the inflammatory response. Certainly, achieving reduced inflammation in the brain after succumbing to an insult such as a TBI, concussions, or stroke can avoid further damage. Our work has paved the way for the usage of etanercept to be delivered to the brain perispinally. Our work on TNF will markedly change medicine's approach to treating long COVID, TBI, stroke, CTE, neuropathic pain, CRPS, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease.
Thank you Leonard for the help you have given, especially to find relief for the many sports figures suffering from brain injury, especially when long-term chronic disability can result. What the Brain-Body Research Institute brings to the table is an understanding of how brain inflammation can be reduced or eliminated which can relieve the disabilities and chronic pain caused by brain injury of various kinds.
No better a spokesperson
I totally agree with Dr. Spengler, who heads up the Brain-Body Research Institute (BBRI for short) along with Dr. Tracey Ignatowski. Leonard Marshall, who is on the BBRI Advisory Board, should be on the NFL Hall of fame. Len Chaikind
Congrats Robert Spengler & Tracey Ignatowski for getting #LeonardMarshall on your team! 👏👏
great 🙂
