Exploring new medical frontiers of the mind

In 1995, Keep Memory Alive began as a simple event designed to celebrate the life of a loving father – Lou Ruvo. Over the next several years, the Lou Ruvo Brain Institute developed into so much more. Today, in partnership with the renowned Cleveland Clinic, Keep Memory Alive is the main awareness, education and development arm of the newly renamed Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health – one of the anchors of Symphony Park and an institution dedicated to the conquest of Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, Parkinson’s, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and all other forms of memory disorders.

Worldwide cooperative research network

The Center is forging a worldwide cooperative research network to validate new treatments, better identify preventative tactics and bring together experts from all medical disciplines to fight a common cause with greater efficiency. The programs of the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health cover four core areas: clinical services, education, public policy forums and research.

Frank Gehry-designed building

The Center is an area landmark with iconic architecture by visionary architect Frank Gehry and was completed in May 2010. The 67,000-square-foot medical and education facility offers the Event Center, a unique meeting space that accommodates up to 500 for dinner and 900 for a reception and Wolfgang Puck Kitchen and Catering.
