Be a Neuro-Advocate: An Intersectional Exploration of Neurological Diseases and Brain-Health Advocacy

Meer over het boek

What will it take to get an entire generation to care about the well-being of their brains? Be a Neuro-Advocate is all about the cultural and historical shift of how our society has come to understand and interact with the human brain. In it, author Melody Chang focuses on framing research, medicine, and diseases in a relevant and relatable way to directly reach those who inaccurately assume brain health has no relevance to them. Be a Neuro-Advocate sparks conversation and curiosity by introducing new technology, therapeutics, and novel ideas for brain health advocacy. It also highlights stories such as: Communicating published research surrounding brain health, with ideas backed-up from world-renown researchers and physicians, and relating these directly back to how we can take ownership of our brain health Incorporating the journeys of individuals who have undergone brain injuries or diseases with how they have overcome adversities and made a lasting impact in the realm of health advocacy Highlighting methods that we can become further involved in individual or large-scale change within the brain health movement Be a Neuro-Advocate is for anyone who is curious about brain health and the up-and-coming research about brain diseases and neuroscience.
