Organization profile

The Glenn Biggs Institute for Alzheimer’s & Neurodegenerative Diseases is dedicated to providing comprehensive care while advancing treatment through education and discovery.

Glenn Biggs was known for his involvement in economic development and service in the community. In his later years, he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and although a prominent figure in the medical community, he struggled to find comprehensive care. This led him to approach UT Health San Antonio President, Dr. William Henrich, and many others to address the community’s need of a comprehensive center for neurodegenerative disease research and care.
