Exploring Frontiers – The Future of Brain Health Research
October 7, 2020 - 9:00 am - 12:30 pm
Join us for our next Exploring Frontiers session, where we will ask key thought leaders to envision where the field could and should be in the next 5-25 years, and advances that will transform our understanding of brain health as we know it.
Current Allen Distinguished Investigators, AHA-Allen Initiative team scientists and Hongkui Zeng, director of the Allen Institute for Brain Science, will present their pioneering research efforts on topics ranging from neuroimmunology to astrocytes to cognitive impairment. The seminar will conclude with a fireside chat on the future frontiers in brain health research.
