NeuroBridge

NeuroBridge is a student-led initiative dedicated to promoting neurological health awareness, education, and advocacy through an equity lens. We focus on the underserved population, such as seniors and cultural communities, by delivering accessible, culturally tailored workshops on stroke awareness, cognitive health, and dementia prevention. NeuroBridge essentially creates opportunities for medical students to engage with communities, develop health advocacy skills, and gain insight into patient and caregiver experiences in neurology. We have delivered 20+ workshops on brain health topics in senior residences, community organizations, and high schools. At the same time, we organize training sessions for medical students that specifically address strides and gaps in neurology. These events complement our community-based initiatives as medical students learn tips for advocacy from neurology staff and residents at Temerty Medicine.
