ALBA Network is a brand committed to promoting diversity and equity in Brain Sciences. Their mission is to create a global network of neuroscientists involved in research, education, communication, and advocacy, all dedicated to fostering inclusivity. By providing resources, hosting events, and offering various activities, ALBA Network aims to make neuroscience more accessible and inclusive for individuals from diverse backgrounds.

One of their notable initiatives is the ALBA Diversity Week 2023, an online festival during Global Diversity Awareness Month. This week-long event features daily webinars that explore different dimensions of diversity and equity. Additionally, the ALBA Disability & Accessibility Working Group provides short videos with tips on making neuroscience more accessible to researchers with disabilities.

ALBA Network also engages with the neuroscience community through conferences and podcasts. They discuss challenges faced by women in neuroscience and explore topics discussed at ALBA-IBRO diversity sessions. They accept nominations for the ALBA-Elsevier Award Lecture on Brain Sciences, which focuses on recognizing research achievements from underrepresented countries.

The ALBA Team, led by the Board of Directors, consists of advisors, ambassadors, and volunteers who work towards fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion. ALBA is a global network that welcomes individuals to join and become members for free. Their dedication to promoting inclusivity in neuroscience makes them a valuable resource for researchers worldwide.
