11 additional European research centers support our call


New petition description: We, the undersigned, representing major institutions across Europe, would like to express our worry on behalf of the scientific community and a large group of patients and care givers, about the future of neuroscience research and especially research into brain diseases in Europe. Based on the draft strategic plan for Horizon Europe, outlining EU research priorities for the coming seven years, we feel this area of research is hugely undervalued and deserves far greater priority.
