Disorders, diseases and injuries to the brain can affect anyone, irrespective of age, socioeconomic background or gender. One in three Canadians, over 11 million people, will face a psychiatric disease, a neurological disorder or a brain or spinal cord injury at some point in their lives, and while treatments exist, there are currently no cures. From autism to Multiple Sclerosis to Alzheimer’s to concussions, brain disorders pose the greatest health challenge of the 21st Century.
