Brain Talks

The burden of neurological diseases in Europe

11 Feb 2021

Description

Today the Brain Talks go back to basics: what is the driving force behind the need and creation of the Brain Innovation Days? At some point of their life, one in three Europeans will live with a brain disease – neurological and mental alike. As a result, the estimations are that brain disorders account for up to 45% of total healthcare budgets. This burden is expected to grow.We speak with Prof. Günther Deuschl, Professor of Neurology at Christian-Albrechts-Universität in Kiel, Germany and former President of the European Academy of Neurology (2014-2018) to address the immense burden carried by neurological diseases, both in Europe and worldwide.How much do these diseases affect the health of European citizens? Are all Member States dealing with this emergency in the same way? These are some of the issues we address in this episode.The data reflected on in this podcast is based on the recent study in the Lancet Neurology, "The burden of neurological diseases in Europe: an analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017": https://doi.org/10.1016/S2468-2667(20)30190-0
