Advancing the Brain Economy 🌎🧠 Lead of Neuro-Policy & Senior Fellow @ Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy | Adjunct @ UCSF
Thank you to Claudio for outlining the importance of building European brain and a European brain economy! Thanks for your roadmap. This is key to European competitiveness. Key points from the talk: - Increased momentum to address brain health and brain capital as a priority. - The fact is, understanding the brain is not just to address a “burden”. It is also to allow people to thrive: to live in health and in happiness, to power our labor markets and economies, and to build for future generations. Brain health has an increasingly critical role in our economies, predicated on the concept of “Brain Capital” – encompassing an individual’s social, emotional, and cognitive resources – with the world increasingly putting a premium on brain skills and brain health.
