Society for Equity Neuroscience (SEQUINS)

Neurological disease is the leading cause of illness and disability worldwide, but the burden of neurological disease is not evenly distributed, with certain groups and regions being more affected than others. The Society for Equity Neuroscience (SEQUINS) is the central and unifying global organization for Equity Neuroscientists.  Equity Neuroscientists traverse all branches of science, stages of translational research, forms of neurological disease, and types of professional discipline. SEQUINS seeks to stimulate, promote, and disseminate high quality research for equitable nervous system care and health, primarily focusing on five major areas: sex/gender, racial/ethnic, geographic, socioeconomic, and global. SEQUINS has something for everyone, including those who don't work in brain research or care, but are interested in helping to ensure brain health equity through moral support, networking, community engagement, and policy making. Key SEQUINS-related events will be streamed here.
