The Society for Equity Neuroscience (SEQUINS) is an international membership organization for equity neuroscientists. SEQUINS seeks to promote health equity via science. [1] SEQUINS was founded in 2024 by Bruce Ovbiagele. [2] Equity Neuroscience involves identifying and addressing the key obstacles and enablers to proper functioning of the brain for everyone, every time, and everywhere. [3] [1] Important demographic disparities and inequities studied by equity neuroscientists include sex-gender, racial-ethnic, geographic, socioeconomic, and global. [1] Equity neuroscientists traverse all branches of sciences, all stages of translational research, all types of neurological disease, and several professional disciplines. [1] Initiatives affiliated with SEQUINS include the TRANCENDS program, [4] [5], HEADS-UP program, [6] [7], TALENTS program, [8], and GRASP program [9] These programs are designed to address the increasing burden of neurological disease worldwide, [10] the disproportionately greater toll of neurological disease among certain groups and regions, [11] the need for science-based social interventions for bridging neurological inequities, [12] underrepresentation of key populations in the scientific and medical workforces, [13] and the call to achieve brain health for all in the 21st century.
