I joined ALBA because :
Discrimination and bias in the brain science field may be rooted in issues of gender, race, social class, language etc. I have experienced some of these bias, firsthand, in my academic and research career. Those experience affected my thinking and personality in a huge way. Through ALBA network, I hope to contribute as a counteracting force to promote equity and diversity.
