How the Human Brain Project can drive brain health innovation

How can we har­ness the Human Brain Project to max­i­mize its future health and well-being ben­e­fits? from SharpBrains: Tracking Brain Health Innovation You can now enjoy the slide deck from this session, which took place at the 2013 SharpBrains Virtual Summit (September 19-20th). How can we har­ness the Human Brain Project to max­i­mize its future health and well-being ben­e­fits? In early 2013, the Euro­pean Union selected the Human Brain Project,  coor­di­nated by Lausanne’s Fed­eral Insti­tute of Tech­nol­ogy (EPFL), as the recip­i­ent of over 1 bil­lion euros/ 1.3 bil­lion dol­lars over the next ten years. How can the research agenda of this major ini­tia­tive, and closely related ones, be orga­nized and aug­mented with part­ner­ships with the pri­vate sec­tor and cross-sector stake­hold­ers? How can we start build­ing brain heath inno­va­tion plat­forms and deliv­ery sys­tems at the inter­sec­tion of neu­ro­science, IT, and engineering?
