NutriNeuro, a member of ALBA network

The ALBA Network aims to promote equity and diversity in the brain sciences.

The goals of the network are to:

  • promote best practices to counteract bias
  • recognize outstanding contributions to science and diversity
  • provide networking and mentoring opportunities to promote careers for members of underrepresented groups. 

These goals will be achieved through:

  • Establishing a Declaration of Best Practices
  • Curating a centralized resource of available data on bias, underrepresentation, and effective strategies
  • Hosting networking events at major Brain Science conferences
  • Establishing awards (e.g. Women in Brain Science/ Diversity Award) with partner sponsors
  • Highlighting success stories of individuals and organizations to create role models
  • Advocacy with policy makers, funding agencies, institutions
  • Creating a mentoring community
  • Collecting a database of scientists as a resource for speaker invitations, award nominations
