Brain Awareness Week
Brain Awareness Week (BAW) is a global campaign held every year in March with the aim of increasing public awareness of the progress and benefits of brain research. In 2026, Brain Awareness Week will take place from March 16–22.
The Lundbeck Foundation has hosted events during Brain Awareness Week since 2021. With our presence and activities we wish to highlight the brain and the research we all depend on – and which the Lundbeck Foundation supports.
Our events are for the general public aged 26–60, and we always host four events during Brain Awareness Week – two in Copenhagen and two in Aarhus – to give as many people as possible the opportunity to participate and learn more about the brain.
This page will be updated continuously as soon as the program and speakers are confirmed.
