Event Description

The 2026 Black Men’s Brain Health (BMBH) Conference is the fifth in an annual event series hosted during Super Bowl Week and funded by sponsors such as the Alzheimer’s Association, the National Institute on Aging, and the NFL Alumni Association.​

The BMBH Conference Series aims to address brain health disparities among Black men, focusing on cognitive aging, Alzheimer’s disease, and sociocultural impacts, by convening experts, practitioners, and community members. This meeting will reinvent how communities engage in and benefit from scientific research. For too long, the scientific and medical fields have been criticized for research that provides little lasting value to participating communities. By centering community voices, this conference aims to tap into genuine engagement and transform Black men’s roles in brain health and AD/ADRD research. Come be part of a movement that prioritizes the health and voices of our community!

This is an inclusive event and we welcome everyone from all race/ethnicities, education levels, professions, genders, and ages to attend this conference whether in-person or online.
