The Belgian Brain Council Symposium 2025, held at the University Foundation in Brussels on May 17, explored how data and artificial intelligence are reshaping the understanding and management of brain disorders. The day began with a morning session that focused on major neurological conditions—multiple sclerosis, neurocognitive disorders, stroke, and depression—supported by expert insights and engaging patient-centered discussions. Following a walking dinner, the afternoon shifted to a mini symposium on AI’s medical, economic, and ethical applications, featuring topics such as AI-driven neuroimaging, surgical planning for brain tumors, and advanced digital phenotyping of neurodegenerative and mental disorders. The event concluded with a roundtable discussion on patient data sharing and its implications for research and health policy, and ended with a celebratory anniversary cocktail. As a hybrid event with live simultaneous translation and English slides, it continues to serve as a platform for clinicians, researchers, patient representatives, and policy-makers to collaboratively shape the future of brain health.
