The Network

ALBA represents a global diverse network of individual neuroscientists who are involved in research, education, communication and advocacy, and are committed to supporting and advocating for actions and policies that foster diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in brain sciences across the globe. We currently have 1890 individual members from 91 countries.

I joined ALBA because :
I am a Sikh neuroscientist working in Europe. Sikh scientists in the western world face numerous challenges due to their underrepresented status. These challenges range from a lack of representation, biases and stereotypes, the struggle to balance their religious and professional identities, and limited access to resources and networks. Addressing these challenges requires a collective effort from scientific communities, policymakers, and society as a whole to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all scientists, regardless of their background. Thus, ALBA network can provide such platform for many such underreprented groups. By becoming part of this network, not only I could represent myself better but also help other underrepresented brain scientists accross globe.
