Sign up for Brain Awareness Week

For the first time, this year the Neurological Alliance is taking part in Brain Awareness Week and we would like our members to join too. Brain Awareness Week gives the Neurological Alliance a great opportunity to celebrate the brain!

Now in its 15th year, Brain Awareness Week is a world-wide event, reaching large audiences across the globe. Hundreds of events took place in over 60 countries participated in Brain Awareness Week 2009, through a truly diverse range of activities including exhibitions, demonstrations, lectures and interactive displays, generating a huge amount of publicity.

The Alliance would like to invite you to participate in the Week and to be part of an international programme. There are many ways in which you can become involved. Perhaps your organisation would like to give a talk at a local school, or team up with neuroscientists at the university in your city. There are lots of ideas on the Brain Awareness Week website

The week is co-ordinated by the Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives (New York) in collaboration with the European Dana Alliance for the Brain (London). The Dana Alliances are non-profit organisations that promote the benefits of brain research.

If you have any questions, would like to discuss your ideas or have help in planning your event, please email Tahani Saridar or Elaine Snell.

If you would like to register an event, please visit the Brain Awareness Week registration page

We hope you will be inspired to organise and event for Brain Awareness Week and be a part of this global campaign.
