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 was introduced to the Alba at FENS 2020, where I attended various (read, all) sessions organized by the network and was instantly curious about the diversity and the vision of this community. I am looking to be part of a scientific community where, in addition to science, the ethics of it are valued equally. Being part of such diverse group of people would be an enriching experience to share.
