[Source: ] – Dr. Thomas Beach removed a heart and brain from containers Monday at the Banner Health Research Institute to show a small delegation of South Korean visitors how researchers use the organs to study the development of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.

Beach, the director of the brain and body donation program, talked with the group of 10 researchers about the institute and gave them a tour of the facilities in Sun City, just one of many places they’re expected to visit this week. They also will visit the Sun City Visitors Center and Grandview Terrace in Sun City West.
