Corporate Advisory Council
The American Brain Coalition (ABC) is a unique non-profit membership organization drawn from patients, researchers, clinicians, universities, government agencies, and corporations devoted to informing Congress, the Executive Branch and the public of the impact that brain research has on the lives of real citizens. Together, we raise awareness among policymakers about the cause, impact, and consequences of neurologic, including psychiatric, illness in society through education and advocacy on cutting edge developments in brain research.
​
Corporate members within the ABC are comprised of leading companies who recognize the importance of partnering with those committed to helping people with brain diseases and disorders. Corporate members include pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies that are developing or marketing therapeutic or diagnostic products.
​
ABC corporate members may designate one individual to represent them on the ABC’s Corporate Advisory Council[i] (CAC). The Council provides unique opportunities for companies to engage with experts in the brain disease community, not only with patient advocacy organizations, but also with top scientific, clinical and policy experts and leaders in the worldwide central nervous system space.
