To expand my network that helps for collaborative research and jobs

Our group is interested to understand the extracellular role of Tau in microglia. Further we are interested in the development of therapeutic approaches targeting amyloid and tau oligomers, diagnostics and biomarkers for neurodegeneration. Our lab majorly cell culture, animal models and human tissue to investigate mechanisms of pathogenesis in Tauopathies such as Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative disorders.

As being young investigator, it’s important to participate and connect with ALBA network to understand the cutting-edge science around the globe.

To better grow in the world of Neuroscience research, to learn new advancements and interaction with brightest minds.

Joining the ALBA Network presents a compelling opportunity for individuals driven by a deep commitment to equity and diversity within the realm of brain sciences. By aligning with ALBA, one not only reinforces their ethos as a champion of fairness and inclusivity but also actively contributes to a community dedicated to advancing these principles. The network offers invaluable networking and mentorship opportunities, serving as a beacon for career growth, particularly for those belonging to underrepresented groups who may encounter unique obstacles along their professional journey. Furthermore, ALBA's ethos of recognition and support underscores its dedication to honoring excellence in both scientific endeavors and fostering diversity. Through prestigious awards and strategic partnerships, members gain not only acknowledgment for their contributions but also access to a supportive ecosystem of like-minded peers and organizations. The network's commitment to providing access to resources is underscored by its curated collection of tools and information aimed at addressing bias and promoting diversity within research and institutional settings. By joining forces with ALBA, individuals not only bolster their ethos as advocates for change but also become integral parts of a larger movement driving advocacy and impact within the neuroscience community. Through collective action and strategic advocacy efforts, ALBA seeks to influence key stakeholders and policymakers, catalyzing a paradigm shift towards prioritizing equity and diversity in brain science. In essence, joining the ALBA Network is more than just a professional decision; it's a profound opportunity to embody ethos, leverage logos through access to resources, and tap into the pathos of meaningful connection and contribution towards a brighter, more inclusive future in the brain sciences.

To serve and receive support from the Neuroscience community

To get the most benefits for my research and increase my research horizon,

To be part of and contribute to a network that champions diversity, equity and inclusion.

To participate in activities and initiatives that help me acquire new skills and knowledge related to my field. To expand my professional networking and opportunities that are few for scientists from South American countries.

I align with the goals of Alba, particularly in actively promoting professional development opportunities for neuroscientists from underrepresented groups, which is especially important to me.

I want to be connected to researchers in the field of neuroscience for my career advancement .

Joining the first UKRI EDI Advocate program highlighted the pervasive impact of implicit biases and the importance of fostering an inclusive environment in neuroscience research. As I transition to Lecturer, I aim to engage in discussions, share best practices, and actively contribute to advancing equity and diversity in brain science.

To promote equity and inclusivity in neuroscience.

It's important to be heard wherever you are working in this field, no matter where in the world you are. It's also important to listen and find solutions to the challenges faced by different groups and scientists living in different regions.
