Advancing brain health. Transforming lives.

It’s estimated that brain disorders directly affect almost half of the world’s population.¹ At Lundbeck, we take a holistic view of brain health, and believe it needs to be promoted and prioritised. Within brain disorders, we focus our efforts on neurology and psychiatry. Neurological disorders alone are a leading cause of disability, and the second-leading cause of death globally (accounting for 9 million deaths per year).² In addition, the prevalence of mental health disorders has been estimated at 970 million people, causing 1 in 6 years lived with disability globally.³ Despite our knowledge about the brain, our strong heritage in the treatment of psychiatric and neurological disorders, and our engagement with those with lived experience, we recognise that significant challenges in brain health still remain.
