Calendar integrity

15–21 March: one complete week.

These seven days are confirmed by the Dana Foundation. They overlap with Neurodiversity Celebration Week, which is organised separately. This site does not invent official daily subthemes for Brain Awareness Week.

Research meets lived experience.

NDF's editorial perspective may explore how public science communication becomes accessible, responsible and useful to people with different minds. This is an NDF perspective, not a Dana campaign slogan.

Two weeks can overlap.

Neurodiversity Celebration Week (15–19 March 2027) is a separate campaign and should remain separately identifiable, even when dates overlap.

Date authority: Dana Foundation official FAQ ↗

Make science accessible

Four ways to explore the brain.

Suggestions from NDF for the confirmed week of 15–21 March 2027. These are not official daily themes or scheduled Dana Foundation events.

01

Ask a better question

Invite a researcher to explain what a study shows, what it does not show and whose experiences it might miss.

02

Make research understandable

Turn one research finding into plain-language, accessible formats with references to its original source.

03

Host a curiosity session

Try a science café, a small group discussion or a hands-on activity with different ways to participate.

04

Connect evidence and lived experience

Ask neurodivergent participants which questions matter most to them and make space for their expertise.
