# NeuroCuba

> NeuroCuba is a global portal that connects international patients — including American patients — with Cuba's neurological restoration expertise. Medical care is delivered in Havana, Cuba, through CIREN (the International Center for Neurological Restoration) and Servicios Médicos Cubanos, under Cuba's Ministry of Public Health. NeuroCuba itself does not operate any clinic, office, or medical facility in the United States; it coordinates evaluation, treatment planning, travel, and follow-up.

NeuroCuba bridges Cuban neuroscience with compassionate, restorative care for families navigating Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and other neurological conditions. The portal provides educational information about Cuba's neuroprotective biotechnology (NeuralCIM® / NeuroEPO), intensive multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs at CIREN, and a guided patient pathway from remote medical-record review through in-person treatment in Havana and telemedicine follow-up at home.

## What NeuroCuba offers

- **Alzheimer's disease care**: An individualized 4-week program at CIREN combining NeuralCIM® (NeuroEPO) neuroprotective therapy, cognitive rehabilitation, neuropsychological care, pharmacological management, and caregiver education. Week 1 is comprehensive diagnostic evaluation; Weeks 2–4 are intensive in-person treatment.
- **Parkinson's disease protocols**: Movement-disorder neurology, intensive physical therapy (4–6 hours/day), speech and swallowing therapy, medication optimization, and neuroprotective care. A 4–8 week individualized program.
- **Neurological restoration / neurorehabilitation**: Intensive multidisciplinary rehabilitation for stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, ataxia, neuropathies, and movement disorders. CIREN was founded in 1989 and has treated thousands of international patients.
- **NeuroEPO / NeuralCIM®**: A low-dose recombinant erythropoietin developed by Cuba's Center of Molecular Immunology, engineered to cross the blood–brain barrier and studied for neuroprotective effects in neurodegenerative disease. It is administered in-hospital as one component of a broader multidisciplinary program, never in isolation. Published outcomes are variable; individual results cannot be guaranteed; it is not a cure.
- **Remote telehealth pathway**: For patients who cannot travel to Cuba, a remote specialist consultation and medication coordination pathway may be available, subject to medical approval and the patient's country regulations.
- **International patient coordination**: Multilingual coordinators (English, Spanish, French, Italian, Arabic) support patients and families at every step — medical-record review, visa and travel arrangements, lodging near treatment centers, and follow-up after returning home.

## How patients begin

1. **Submit medical records** for a free remote specialist review. Records to send: recent brain MRI or CT images and reports, neurologist/physician reports, cognitive assessment results, recent lab results, full medical history, current medication list, and any other relevant records.
2. **Specialist review** by CIREN neurologists determines eligibility and builds a personalized treatment plan.
3. **Travel to Cuba** for the in-person intensive program (typically 4 weeks), or a **remote telehealth consultation** for patients who cannot travel.
4. **Follow-up care** after returning home, including telemedicine check-ins with the Cuban medical team.
