On March 11, our team gathered in Vancouver on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations for our third 7-Directions Summit. The gathering brought together people with lived and living experience, members from community and healthcare to share perspectives and help guide the future of brain-heart health research. We were also joined by some of our partners from the Brain-Heart Interconnectome (BHI) and the Canadian Heart Function Alliance.
