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.

Behavioral neuroscience
Cellular and molecular neuroscience
Circuit neuroscience
Developmental neuroscience
Excitable membranes and ion channels
History, teaching, public awareness, and societal
Motor systems neuroscience

I joined ALBA because :
I have recently realized (by analysing the shocking ERC_Advanced Grants data) that my I was way off in believing that we had pretty much solved the issues of women in neuroscience. I have been naive and biased by my own good experiences in terms of both mentoring and representation. I would like to do something to help change the situation.

I joined ALBA because :
There is still a long way to go to make science truly global and the scientific community as diverse and inclusive as the people in this planet. I hope that by joining ALBA, together with my other activities, including mentorship and directing TReND, I might contribute to bridge this gap.
