Resources for Librarians:
Welcome! The Dana Press is the publishing division of the Dana Foundation. Our books and Website explore cutting-edge news from the leaders in neuroscience. Also, we're very proud that we were listed in the 10/1/2007 issue of Library Journal, along with MIT Press, as one of the "main publishers in this area."
Dana library services is happy to assist you with booking local authors at your library or conference, provide examination copies, or discuss opportunities for you to join us as we celebrate our 15th anniversary of Brain Awareness Week. Brain Awareness Week (BAW), a global campaign to increase public awareness about the progress and benefits of brain research. Every March BAW unites the efforts of universities, hospitals, patient groups, government agencies, schools, service organizations, and professional associations worldwide in a week-long celebration of the brain. Founded and coordinated by the Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives and European Dana Alliance for the Brain, the campaign will launch March 15-21, 2010.
