Dr Barnes, our great pioneer in this field, created a brain health equity starter pack! Follow these important researchers!

Also, in my mission to help seniors, I taught Lisa how to create a starter pack and share it 🤣 Just kidding, Lisa!!! Don’t kill me!
Hey equity folks! I created a starter pack for brain health equity. Please join and share your work with us to amplify the messages!
