Reminder! The Collective to Strengthen Pathways for Health Research is seeking proposals to host symposia across the US in 2025, focused on strengthening support for prevention of and improvement in clinical encounters to maximize the societal benefits of research. We encourage proposals for symposia related to brain health! Proposals are due tomorrow, November 8, at 3pm ET. Learn more below. #brainhealth #neurosociety #neuroscience #philanthropy

Excited to welcome Dr. Erin Purvis to our team at the Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory at UC Irvine as our new Dana - CNLM Civic Science Fellow! Thank you to the Dana Foundation for supporting this fellowship and to the Rita Allen Foundation's Civic Science Fellowship program for creating and nurturing the infrastructure that enables this work. https://lnkd.in/g5fUWwnx

I invite you to read a new article about the recently launched Dana Center Initiative for Neuroscience & Society. Thank you to the ENTENTE Network and Wendy Diller for such thoughtful reporting. The Dana Foundation envisions that incorporating perspectives from various disciplines and directly involving those who may be impacted by scientific advancements will enrich the research process and enhance neuroscience’s positive impact on society. #neurosociety #neurotech #neuroscience https://lnkd.in/gMaba7Ww

Emerging neurotechnologies have generated a range of significant questions around data privacy, consent, individual autonomy, and control, as well as safety and reliability of device use—issues that are relevant throughout medicine, but assume special dimensions when applied to the human brain. The Dana Foundation is pioneering efforts to address these complex issues through the Dana Center Initiative.

A heartfelt thank you to two of our amazing Fellows in Neuroscience & Society, Farron McIntee and Rachel Wurzman. Over the past two years, their dedication and hard work have been instrumental in launching our new mission. Farron made significant contributions to developing the Dana NextGen program, and Rachel played a key role in shaping the Dana Frontiers program. They have been invaluable assets to our team, and we will truly miss them! #neurosociety #fellowship #thankyou #philanrhropy
