Act early

Think Brain Health Global has emerged from an evidence-based international consensus report 'Time matters: a call to prioritize brain health'. It aims to help healthcare professionals, policymakers, researchers and the general public to act early to:

  • promote public understanding that preventing brain disease is possible and that 'what’s good for the heart is good for the brain'
  • prepare healthcare professionals to manage people with or at risk of neurodegenerative brain disease
  • prioritize research and build infrastructure to enable prevention, early detection and management of neurodegenerative brain disease.

Neurodegenerative brain diseases are those that cause progressive damage to the brain. Think Brain Health Global is an initiative run by an international multidisciplinary group of experts and endorsed by key organizations from across Europe.
