Antonio Barbera is the Founder and CEO of Table Tennis Connections, a 501c(3) Non-Profit Organization that builds community and empowers neural development through table tennis AKA ping-pong!  Dr. Barbera has developed the NeuroPong™  system to forestall and even reverse the effects of neurodegenerative diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinsons, and cognitive impairment - and is highly effective in supporting youth with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder - AKA ADHD.  

Dr. Barbera began his medical career in Italy, and was a leading-edge gynecologist in Europe and the US for over 30 years.  He was forced into retirement by the effects of Multiple Sclerosis in 2017.  A roller coaster of emotional and financial and physical challenges followed, along with the discovery of the beneficial effects of new neural growth - such as can occur through bilateral activities like table tennis.  

Today, Dr. Barbera is healthy and spry, and took it easy on me in winning by a comfortable margin in our ping pong match. This is a wonderful conversation with an amazingly interesting and thoughtful man.
