Women's Brain Health Initiative

The Women's Brain Health Initiative conducts research and provides education on neurological and mental health conditions that disproportionately affect women across the lifespan. The organization focuses on conditions including dementia, stroke, migraines, and mood disorders, working to close gaps in understanding how biological, hormonal, and social factors influence women's brain health. Based in Toronto, the initiative partners with researchers, clinicians, and community members to develop evidence-based resources, support clinical trials, and advocate for gender-specific approaches in neuroscience. By raising awareness about how women experience neurological disease differently than men, the organization aims to improve diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes for women throughout the GTA and beyond.
