SUMMARY:10th Academy of National Brain Councils
DESCRIPTION:Look Back at the 10th National Brain Councils AcademyThe 10th National Brain Councils Academy (NBCs) was held from 8 to 9 May 2024 in Pula\, more precisely on the island of Brijuni in Croatia. This year\, the meeting was integrated into the 3rd International Conference on Neurological Disorders and Neurorestoration\, which took place from 9 to 12 May 2024.\n\nThis annual event brought together several representatives from European NBCs\, both online and in person. No less than 11 countries were represented\, including Belgium\, Croatia\, Finland\, Germany\, Greece\, Italy\, Norway\, Serbia\, Spain\, Sweden and Switzerland.\nFurthermore\, we were pleased to welcome Karim Berkouk (Policy Officer\, Directorate-General for Research and Innovation\, European Commission) and to receive a video message from Dr Neerja Chowdhary (Technical Officer\, World Health Organization (WHO). The themes of their sessions were respectively “Update of the Intersectoral Global Action Plan on Epilepsy and Other Neurological Disorders” and “Analysis of the Impact of AI in Science Policies for Neuroscience and Health”. During the meeting\, the NBCs shared their insights on the good practices and the national strategies for advancing brain health in Europe. They provided updates on their respective national brain health plans.\nAdditionally\, the European Brain Council (EBC) presented an overview of its EU Elections Manifesto 2024\, highlighting the importance of placing brain health and research at the top of the policy agenda\, both at the EU and national levels.\n\n“We call on the European Parliament and European Commission 2024-2029 to support policy making towards equitable and quality brain health to combat brain challenges\, promote societal cohesion\, boost economic productivity and guide the EU to the role of global leader in brain research.”– Frédéric Destrebecq\, Executive Director\, European Brain Council\n \nThe focus of the second part of the programme shifted towards data\, with a panel discussion dedicated to the establishment of the European Brain Health Data Hub\, an association proposing to share patient data among European health institutions. The aim of this new initiative is to enhance research on mental health\, particularly by addressing gaps in data availability. This initiative from the Belgian Brain Council\, led by Roland Pochet (Secretary General\, Belgian Brain Council) and Gregory Lewkowick (Professor\, University of Brussels) was endorsed by the Belgian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy and Labour\, Pierre-Yves Dermagne.\n\n\nFinally\, the meeting of the 10th NBCs Academy was all the more important this year\, as it took place ahead of a major milestone\, the European elections\, set to take place on 6-9 June 2024. This will be a crucial opportunity for the brain community to shape the future of European brain health\, research\, and innovation.\n\nLearn more about National Brain CouncilsLearn moreLearn more

SUMMARY:Belgian Brain Council Symposium | Altruistic Data Association
DESCRIPTION:On May 14 and 15\, 2024\, the Belgian Brain Council is organizing a symposium that will officially inaugurate the creation of an Altruistic Data Association. This creation is the result of the application of the European Data Governance Act (DGA)\, which encourages the voluntary sharing of data for altruistic purposes such as scientific research or the improvement of public services. \nThis symposium will present the fruit of our interactions with the political world\, scientific experts and the trust placed in the BBC by its 25 patient associations and 22 scientific societies. This symposium is aimed at a wide audience interested in data sharing in the healthcare sector. There are 150 places available. \nThe political debates and the session where patient associations have their say will be translated into French and Dutch in real time. The scientific session will be in English.  Online participants will be able to ask questions via the Slido platform. Reservations will be open from March 15\, 2024. The program includes the active participation of politicians\, scientists\, patient associations\, members of the European Commission\, the Belgian Health Data Agency and the Brain Councils of 5 other member states who have decided to join forces. It will be a hybrid event\, meaning it can be taken online or in person. \nRegistrationProgramme
