We are very honored to announce that the article “Building brain capital”, co-authored by EMEA President, Prof Rym Ayadi, has been published by Neuron (Issue 05 May 2021). The article has been published under the OECD – NAEC (New Approaches to Economic Challenges) Neuroscience-inspired Policy in cooperation with PRODEO Institute, on the concept of “Brain Capital”, which considers brain skills and brain health as an indispensable part of the knowledge economy.
NAEC promotes this concept as an approach for thinking about the economy and how it works in new ways and is laying some of the groundwork, looking at relevant metrics and building up a network of interested actors in the medical field, neuroscience, philanthropy and business.
