This EAN TV Studio session spotlighted the urgent need for national brain plans and a coordinated EU strategy to tackle the rising burden of brain disorders. After Mika Martikainen from the Finnish Brain Council presented the country’s brain strategy, Suzanne Dickson explained how EBC actively advocates for an EU-wide coordination strategy.
“Brain health is one of the areas with the biggest potential for research, but also for investment” – MEP Sokol (EPP, CR).
MEP Tomislav Sokol then emphasised the crucial role of the European Parliament and available policy mechanisms to drive collective action, ensuring brain health remains a priority on the EU policy agenda.
