2019 NEURONEXUS
for brain science and mental health
Neurological and mental health disorders can be debilitating conditions that severely limit one’s quality of life and that of their family. Understanding, diagnosing, and treating these conditions are extremely complex challenges that require attention and collaboration across traditional disciplinary divides. Neuro Nexus is a Calgary-based, Spring 2019 multidisciplinary design competition that stemmed from the Innovation 4 Health Competition, but brings focus to the field of neurological and mental health. Neuro Nexus aims to bridge gaps between disciplines, accelerate research, and improve the translation of new ideas to impact.
