In this episode of No Brain Behind, Dr. Gitanjali Das and Dr. Sonya Gleicher talk with Dr. Harris Eyre, a pioneering physician-neuroscientist and global thought leader behind the Brain Capital movements. Dr. Eyre introduces the concept of Brain Capital—a framework that views brain health and brain skills as fundamental assets for individuals, societies, and economies. Together, they explore how investing in our collective cognitive and emotional well-being can strengthen economies, advance innovation, and promote global health equity. The conversation spans from Dr. Eyre’s early experiences in rural and indigenous health in Australia to his current work influencing international policy, including his initiatives at the UN General Assembly, World Economic Forum, and the African Brain Health Task Force.
