SFCNS Swiss Brain Health Plan - 2nd Stakeholder Meeting

Our brain is essential for health, wellbeing, creativity and productivity, both as individuals and society. However, brain disorders - which include such neurological and psychiatric/mental conditions as stroke, dementia, epilepsy, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, headache, sleep disorders- affect over 50% of the population. Also, brain disorders are not only very frequent, but also a source of tremendous suffering for individuals and their families, as well as an increasing economic burden for the entire community.
