00:00:00
morning everyone thank you all for being here
00:00:04
the other night i put my you know my three year old daughter to bed to sleep
00:00:09
and i was the dinner if a table you know i'd woken
00:00:12
disney princesses like cinderella sleeping beauty uh in a snow white
00:00:20
in this book that was like with a series of questions and i i read too much you know
00:00:24
one of these questions and the question was if you wear it princes what would you do
00:00:31
so you know what martin and seventy
00:00:34
she looked at me very very decisively in and she went like this money if i were princes
00:00:42
she does these i would cut my hair and i would become a prince charming that really took
00:00:48
me by surprise i was like well my daughter is the youngest in standard i think
00:00:53
but actually looking and i was there and i thought about it and i said you know what
00:00:58
she's it's enormous fairy tales the koreans is the one that gets to do the interesting job
00:01:04
in this work resources there are finding themselves in the most often situations um so the first one
00:01:09
that comes to my mind is sleeping beauty was asleep in bed ridden four hundred years
00:01:15
and then you have snow white was stop stop by the hunter any the engine was poison
00:01:20
and then you have seen their lovers from is the worse of all and she was abused by have relatives and she was stuck at home
00:01:27
i mean not proper job notification so seriously it might be my daughter was totally right
00:01:34
but i really if you think about it it's not just fantasy and this is what i would like you to to ponder for
00:01:39
a while it's not just fantasy so this does statistics of the
00:01:43
ferries days i pretty much in line with reality unfortunately
00:01:47
princesses and we men in general haven't much higher chance to develop a number of mental and bring diseases
00:01:53
this is like the mention the passion for these things and these are diseases that force
00:01:57
you to stay in bed better return for time that feels forever hundred years
00:02:02
and then we men are the main sufferers sufferers of the mistaken more violence and abuse is
00:02:08
they carry the overwhelming burden of carotene and they're still less educated in less than it's the mine
00:02:16
so now please consider the the current situation we have women live longer than men
00:02:22
and spend a significant proportion of their life in was have conditions that men
00:02:26
and yes there often expected to be the caregivers in the family
00:02:30
and at the same time they have to to caregiver give caregiver for their parents as well as for their sounds
00:02:37
so it is not entirely surprising that several brain and mental diseases affect women more than men given the situation
00:02:43
but still biologically we don't understand why and we are
00:02:47
not taking this factor into consideration for treatment
00:02:51
so the situation i think you would be wouldn't be is simply not sustainable by other ages aside in the long run
00:02:59
and we need to take action now and we need to do it for us and most of all we
00:03:02
need to do it for the next generation and the generation of my you know my of my daughters
00:03:08
so you get the show women's brain in mental health is not in the rather of
00:03:13
policymakers and regulators and this is exactly why we created when he's been project
00:03:19
we want to bring the topic of means brain in meant that have to do we need to the global agenda
00:03:26
so in the past year within um the easy to uh create awareness on this topic and we've
00:03:33
been featured by national and international journals uh we even appeared other than this man kinetic stock
00:03:40
we have established robust network a social media to spread key concepts in create
00:03:45
a sense of a consensus around the stockings and a sense of community in a sense of church which is important
00:03:51
we identify three loss of our uh
00:03:55
what group so you you had them from got them identify specific needs for uh oh we must
00:04:00
brain and mental health advocate for change in position the findings for the benefit of this site
00:04:06
just wanted to get issue example of what we've been doing in terms of identifying specific needs of women's brain
00:04:12
in mental health within like basically that we don't several high level activities in academic and police landscape
00:04:18
so we have a few peer reviewed papers now on sex in a us embassies in
00:04:22
collaboration with alzheimer's disease personalising like this initiative and the from that's hard side
00:04:28
we are guest editing to specially shoes on these topics along with the
00:04:32
journal assignments and the mentioned in one contention as frontiers innuendo chronology
00:04:37
we are collaborating with the european academy of neurology for policy
00:04:41
for um for a position paper on sex enough fantasies
00:04:44
anywhere collaborating with the europeans did you for women's health which is represented here today as well for policy
00:04:51
brief on women and the men so at the european level we want to bring this that european
00:04:56
so this is just the first that identified the need specific means of women is just the first but then once we have that
00:05:02
uh then we can shape future actions in focus our efforts in this
00:05:06
is exactly why you're here today because we need to take action
00:05:11
soul to go to the next level to take action we need your help we we hear today several examples of
00:05:17
specific needs of women so we we go with the first panel first we will cover uh some biological aspect
00:05:22
with the second panel we would discuss social economic uh factors such as cared
00:05:27
even and then easy enough then we want to use this information
00:05:31
to really move forward to what sex and gender equity in brain and meant to have
00:05:36
so in the in the afternoon we would be discussing about future actions with regards to clinical trials in the third one
00:05:42
anything new technologies in the fourth panel in these i know it sounds a bit surprising what but
00:05:47
we suspect that it is a generation or gender bias not just in fairy tales but maybe
00:05:53
maybe even your smart phones in the technology that surrounds us use
00:05:57
your is your uh uh chuck boxes your um your phones
00:06:02
so our goal today is to propose functional solutions to precise problems
00:06:07
uh we um intends to collect the outcome of each panel in position papers
00:06:12
that uh will be then publish and uh um use for outreach
00:06:17
so please enjoy the meeting i hope you enjoy the meeting a lot today in please help us with your input with
00:06:22
the contribution help us to shape the future women's brain and mental health for the benefit of the holes aside
