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 discovered the ALBA network at the Society for Neuroscience Connectome and have been itching to become a member ever since. As a woman in a male-dominated field, not only am I hoping to connect with strong women mentors, but also to work in a unified group towards accomplishing ALBA Network’s goals to counteract bias and empower underrepresented groups in brain sciences.
