The impact of brain disorders is escalating. It is estimated that brain disorders directly affect half the world’s population, and the effects are felt throughout society. Every day we go to work to address high unmet medical needs for people living with brain disorders. Patients who have few or no treatments available. Through cutting-edge science and strong partnerships, we develop and market some of the world’s leading treatments, expanding into neuro-specialty and neuro-rare from our strong legacy within psychiatry and neurology. Our most important contribution is easing the burden of the millions of people living with brain disorders. Whether it is migraine, depression, or other brain disorders, patients, their carers, and society as a whole depend on us. At Lundbeck, we are - Advancing brain health. Transforming lives. #AdvancingBrainHealth #FocusedInnovator

Thank you for stopping by our Valby site Morten Bødskov   It was an honor to welcome the Minister for Business and Industry, Morten Bødskov to Lundbeck yesterday.   Following the recent launch of Denmark’s new ambitious Life Science Strategy, it was a privilege to offer first-hand insight into our facilities where the majority is working within research and production. The minister had the opportunity to experience our facilities up close and meet some of our dedicated colleagues. We were also able to engage in fruitful discussions about the framework conditions that are so important for our industry to continue to thrive. We share the minister’s commitment to enhancing the value of life science for patients, their relatives and for society at large.   Many thanks to everyone who participated in this meaningful exchange. Together, we can continue to drive innovation to advance brain health and transform lives! 🧠   #Lundbeck #LifeScience #MinistryofIndustry #Advancingbrainhealth Ministry of Industry, Business and Financial Affairs

2.8 billion people live with a neurological disorder globally – a number that is expected to grow with an aging population. At Lundbeck, we are dedicated to addressing this immense challenge. Every day we go to work to address high unmet medical needs for people living with brain disorders. Patients who have few or no treatments available. Through cutting edge science and strong partnerships, we develop and market some of the world’s leading treatments, expanding into neuro-specialty and neuro-rare from our strong legacy within psychiatry and neurology.

Today, we take an important step towards a national Danish Brain Plan at the Danish Brain Summit in Copenhagen 🧠 Hosted by Lundbeck in collaboration with Dansk Industri, this summit convenes policymakers, patient advocates, and experts to elevate brain health as a national priority. Lundbeck’s CEO, Charl van Zyl, opened the event by emphasizing our longstanding commitment to brain health and the urgent need to address the rising impact of brain diseases. The overwhelming interest in today’s event reflects a shared commitment to this cause. We hope the recommendations from these discussions will inspire not only a national brain plan in Denmark — with the newly established Danish Brain Council playing a key role — but also serve as a model for other countries to prioritize brain health on a larger scale.

Exciting Visit from the American Ambassador to Denmark! ✈️ Last week, we were honored to welcome the American Ambassador to Denmark, Alan M. Leventhal, to our headquarters for an insightful meeting and an exclusive tour of our research labs. The discussions centered around innovation in neuroscience, continuous improvements in our understanding of the brain and Lundbeck’s commitment to advancing brain health. The Ambassador’s visit provided an opportunity to also showcase some of the latest brain research and how our dedicated team bring this forward. A special highlight was the tour of our research labs, where the Ambassador got a firsthand look at the innovative technologies and methodologies we employ to push the boundaries of neuroscience 🧠 We are inspired by the Ambassador’s enthusiasm to the field of neuroscience. Thank you, Alan M. Leventhal, for visiting us. Charl van Zyl, Johan Luthman, Tarek Samad, U.S. Embassy in the Kingdom of Denmark #AdvancingBrainHealth #InnovationInNeuroscience

#BrainHealth is key to overall health and wellbeing - let’s not leave it behind 🧠 The global burden and impact of brain disorders is growing. It is estimated that brain disorders directly affect half the world’s population, and their consequences are felt throughout society. At Lundbeck, as we rapidly improve our understanding of the biology of the brain, we also hold ourselves accountable for advancing brain health by curiously exploring new opportunities for treatments. We’re beginning to leverage artificial intelligence and advanced technologies to access the brain, enabling us to develop treatment opportunities that were previously unimaginable. Dr. Morten Grunnet, Vice President and Head of Neuroscience at Lundbeck shared his thoughts on the importance of brain research with the European Brain Council as part of their ‘No Health Without Brain Health’ campaign at the European Parliament. In the video below, he discusses the challenges and opportunities in European brain research and innovation, and the importance of maintaining a competitive environment. 👇

World Mental Health Day 2024 at Lundbeck: An impressive global effort 🌍 Lundbeck marked World Mental Health Day 2024 with a series of impactful initiatives across the globe. Our efforts included discussions on the state of psychiatry as well as illuminating historic monuments to raise awareness. We hosted press conferences featuring international experts and engaged employees in meaningful activities, such as creating murals that reflect the duality of mental health conditions. We organized special events focused on workplace mental health and participated in community activities like street races and wellness walks. Our teams also engaged in 'plogging' to promote environmental and mental health, and ran radio campaigns to spread awareness. Art exhibitions and public murals were created to unite against stigma, while seminars and talks provided insights into stress management and mental illness. We collaborated with local communities and patient associations to amplify our message, using multi-channel media approaches to reach a wider audience. These initiatives not only highlighted the importance of mental health but also demonstrated our ongoing commitment to eliminating stigma and promoting mental well-being across the world. Thank you to all our partners and affiliates for your dedication and support. Together, we stay committed to our purpose: Advancing brain health. Transforming lives. 💚
