2007 Annual Appeal July 8 to 14
What would you consider our society's most serious health problem - cancer, heart disease, HIV/Aids?
In fact, brain disorders hold top place. Currently they affect as many as a billion people worldwide , that is, one thousand million people â, almost a sixth of the world's total population and 25 times more people than the 39.5 million estimated to be infected with HIV/Aids.
This year's Neurological Foundation Annual Appeal seeks to raise awareness about the immense human cost of neurological disorders and the urgent need for ongoing research to find the answers to these devastating diseases.
