Brain Awareness Week is the global campaign to increase public awareness of the progress and benefits of brain research. It unites the efforts of partner organizations from around the world in a week-long celebration of the brain every year in mid-March. It was founded by the Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives in 1995 and is coordinated by the Dana Foundation. Strategic partners include the Society for Neuroscience, the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies, and the International Brain Research Organization.
Types of events held each year are: lectures, panel discussions, neuroscience lab tours, art exhibitions, brain fairs, and lessons for school students. The Dana foundation offers free materials and event-planning advice on its website.
There is support from leading universities' neuroscience schools,[1][2] neuroscience publishers,[3] national[4] and student neuroscience societies.[5]
