Glenn Biggs Institute for AlZheimer's & Neurodegenerative Diseases

Combining research and clinical care in pursuit of a cure

Our research and our clinical care is driven by the recognition that the entire scope of a patient’s life, community, and health history impacts their brain health. We provide a comprehensive network of clinical care for patients and their families with access to the most advanced treatment in clinical trials.

As the state’s only National Institute on Aging designated center of excellence for dementia care and research, we bring the most advanced precision prevention, diagnosis and treatment approaches to the underserved Hispanic communities in South Texas.

Glenn Biggs was a prominent figure whose leadership influenced economic development across San Antonio, Texas.

When he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, he and his family struggled to 
find comprehensive dementia care. This search led him to approach 
UT Health San Antonio and many other community leaders to address 
the need for a comprehensive center dedicated to understanding 
Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
