The Covid-19 pandemic shed a crude light on how instrumental research and innovation are in the European Union. This crisis revealed significant disparities and fractures between Member States. More importantly, patients living with neurological or mental disorders were heavily impacted by the pandemic, and faced tremendous challenges to maintain their access to care and to meet their medical needs.

In this episode, Frederic Destrebecq, Executive Director of the European Brain Council, Christian Suojanen, Founder & CEO of Broadreach Global, and Professor Michel Goldman, renowned medical doctor and researcher, discuss the post-pandemic European landscape, and address the major challenges and opportunities for brain research and innovation in the EU.

From fostering a collaborative climate within the wider brain community to an ambitious European Brain Research and Innovation Plan, join our journey on what it takes to make brain research and innovation a European priority for the 21st century.
