Abstract

Addressing brain health is an essential new vector for the prevention of mental disorders and the promotion of mental well-being. With the high and rising burden of mental, substance, and neurological disorders, we need to think about our approach to novel solutions. This is particularly poignant given that the world is predicted to be increasingly challenged by stressful global shocks spanning climate crises, pandemics, as well as financial, political, and geopolitical. The concept of brain health provides a new opportunity to bridge the mental health and neurology communities to harness collective resources and cultivate transdisciplinary scientific, public health, and economic innovations.
