Evelyn F. McKnight, a nurse, established the Evelyn F. McKnight Brain
Research Foundation® on May 26, 1999. Mrs. McKnight and her late
husband, William L. McKnight, were interested in the effects of aging
on memory. This interest inspired Mrs. McKnight to establish the
Foundation as a legacy of support for brain research with the specific
goal of better understanding and alleviating age-related cognitive
decline and memory loss.
