Investing in Our Brains: The Hidden Story of Women's Brain Health

The Museum of Science, Boston and The Boston Club present a vital conversation on women’s brain health, focusing on closing the gap in awareness, research, and care.
Despite making up half of the global population, women remain significantly underrepresented in brain health research, and yet they are disproportionately affected by conditions like Alzheimer’s, depression, and anxiety. Join us for an illuminating evening that explores the latest innovations, shares powerful stories, and charts a path forward for equity in brain health.
This program will feature a panel of leading experts discussing brain health across the lifespan - from childhood and adolescence to postpartum and menopausal mental health, into aging-related conditions like dementia and Parkinson’s disease. The discussion will draw from recent studies, including a groundbreaking paper published in Nature Mental Health, to shed light on the unique challenges and opportunities in understanding the female brain.
Together, let’s break the silence, challenge the gaps, get involved, and reimagine brain health with women at the center.
