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.

Gender : Woman
Fields of research :
Behavioral neuroscience
Disorders of the nervous system
Analysis of behavior and cognition in humans
Analysis of behavior and cognition in non-human animal
Biochemistry
Data analysis and statistics
Genetic models and techniques
In vivo monitoring
Molecular approaches
Pharmacology
Species : vertebrate
Therapeutic techniques
I joined ALBA because :
I strongly believe in the importance of inclusivity and of giving equal chanches to humans in all their diversities. It is crucial to tackle obstacles that prevent all people to take equal part in neurosciences and to develop their full potential in this field.

I joined ALBA because :
I am just starting as a researcher and many sides of scientific environment are just becoming visible to me so the mission of ALBA is very close to my heart. As I progress with my career I wish to be able to offer support to other young researchers who might be struggling with similar issues I am dealing with now. I am also looking forward to connecting with my older colleagues to if possible get some knowledge from more experienced researchers.

I joined ALBA because :
As Ph.D. student I had the possibility to observe how cultural bias can negative affect the research in neuroscience and the working and personal life of neurosciantists. I want to give my contribution in order to make science a more inclusive environment.
