Brain Awareness Week is a series of global events held in many parts of the world to increase public awareness of the brain. Every March BAW brings together the efforts of universities, hospitals, patient groups, government agencies, schools, service organizations, and professional associations worldwide in a week-long commemoration of the brain. Founded and coordinated by the Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives and the European Dana Alliance for the Brain, BAW is observing its fifteenth anniversary campaign in 2010. More than 1,000 students heard lectures by top Czech scientists as part of the annual Brain Awareness Week that took place in the administration building of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic 15–21 March 2010.
