The Atlantic Fellows for Equity in Brain Health at the Global Brain Health Institute have recently announced their 2024–25 cohort. The group includes 34 emerging leaders from 24 countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America and Oceania and represents diverse fields including the arts, medicine, cognitive science and public health.
“We are delighted to welcome our new cohort of Fellows to Dublin and San Francisco and look forward to working with them as they begin their brain health equity journey with us," said Brian Lawlor, Site Director, GBHI, Trinity College Dublin.
The 2024-25 cohort expands the program’s geographic reach, adding eight new countries: Cameroon, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, New Zealand, Tanzania, Thailand, Togo and Uganda. This brings the total number of current Atlantic Fellows for Equity in Brain Health and alumni to 266, spanning 62 countries worldwide.
The Atlantic Fellows work to address both local and global disparities in brain health and dementia through education, policy, advocacy and evidence-based interventions. The program uniquely merges science, art and creativity, fostering an environment where diverse perspectives lead to innovative solutions to global brain health challenges.
“As we welcome this extraordinary cohort from across the globe, we recognize the power of diversity. Each Fellow’s unique perspective will drive transformative changes in brain health equity, both locally and globally,” said Victor Valcour, Site Director, GBHI, University of California, San Francisco.
