Two days to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Paris Brain Institute and to encourage international mobilization for brain health.
As part of its 15th anniversary, Paris Brain Institute is organizing the World Brain Health Forum, to which we are pleased to invite you.
This event will bring together high-level experts and decision-makers for a strategic discussion on scientific and societal issues in brain health.
Indeed, brain health is emerging as one of the major challenges of the 21st century. Neurological and psychiatric disorders affect more than one in three people worldwide, with a major impact on societies. But scientific and technological advances in recent years now offer unprecedented opportunities to better understand the brain and the factors that influence its health, and to accelerate the development of therapeutic and preventive solutions.
Transforming this knowledge into concrete benefits requires global and intersectoral mobilization, involving international academic organizations and economic and industrial actors. It is in this spirit that Paris Brain Institute, together with its partners, the European Cure-ND Alliance and the International Brain Health Alliance, wished to organise this World Brain Health Forum.
The event will take place over two days:
- Wednesday 14 January 2026 will be dedicated to the celebrations of the 15th anniversary of Paris Brain Institute. The day will provide an overview of his first 15 years and will propose to frame his current dynamic in the context of the major challenges facing neuroscience. It will take place at Paris Brain Institute.
- The main conference of the World Brain Health Forum will take place on 15 January 2026 at UNESCO House. We will have the honour of welcoming His Excellency Ban Ki-moon, the 8th Secretary-General of the United Nations, and Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization, for the opening addresses, testifying to the international scope of this symposium.
The programme for these two days is detailed on the event website
If you wish to participate, we invite you to confirm your attendance.
