Brain Health Nexus
Founding Steering Committee
The Brain Health Nexus Founding Steering Committee (FSC) is composed of international leaders in the brain health ecosystem who have directly participated in and/or led previous roadmapping efforts; embrace the one system vision of working across diseases, disciplines and other silos; and are committed to driving a shared mission and collective action.
The main purpose of the FSC is to establish a framework for developing an actionable roadmapping strategic and operational plan, based on collective experience. This framework will be communicated via a Draft White Paper to the participants of the Summit for input and consensus.
