Women's Brain Health: A Focused Lens (In person, Toronto)

Join us as we explore women’s brain health across life stages, and why closing the research gap is key to more equitable care.
About this Event

Progress in brain health research is easy to underestimate, until you zoom out. Year to year, the steps can feel small. But over a decade, the change is profound: new discoveries, new treatments, and a fundamental shift in how society understands conditions that affect millions of people. The Evolution of Brain Health traces that longer arc across three talks, each focusing on a single topic to explore how far we've come, what the science tells us today, and where it's taking us next.

Decades of brain research defaulted to male subjects, leaving women's brain health underexplored and undertreated. This talk explores how female biology shapes distinct neurological pathways at every life stage, and what a growing body of research is revealing about the brain health implications of pregnancy, perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

Closing that gap is not just a scientific priority. It's the foundation of the equitable care women deserve, in cognitive health as in aging.
