    Words can't describe the energy in the room at the Ann S. Bowers Women's Brain Health Initiative launch, so I'll leave the heavy lifting to this short film. Humor can subvert, enrage, empower & educate. So take a look and then let's get to work.

    RT @UofCalifornia: Good news: Neuroscience is having a moment. Bad news: Only 0.5% of research focuses on women's brains... The Ann S. Bowers Women's Brain Health Initiative, centered at @UCSantaBarbara, is driven by a radically simple idea: Progress in neuroscience will flourish when the health of men and women are valued equally.

    When Laura Pritschet and Pavel Shapturenka set out to build the 28&Me and 28&He datasets, I don't think any of us could've predicted the spectacularly creative ways the datasets would be used years later. That's the power of open science. 👇🏼

    These datasets live on OpenNeuro, thanks to @russpoldrack and team's vision to build a data-sharing  platform that accelerates discovering and maximizes the ROI of painstakingly collected data. More at:

    RT @Bowers_WBHI: With the power of the people behind it, the California legislature just passed the Menopause Care Equity Act. This is history in the making—finally addressing a health gap that impacts millions of women. Now, it’s down to one signature. @CAgovernor, the pen is in your hand. 🖊️
