I joined ALBA because :
Due to the long-term effects of Apartheid, black South Africans are severely underrepresented in almost all academic fields including neuroscience. I want to increase the visibility of my African brain organoid initiative by joining ALBA and shining a light on African neuroscience conducted in Africa by Africans.
