I joined ALBA because :
I noticed that there is not a lot of awareness for diversity and inclusion issues in the German academic system yet. Thus, I would like to join Alba to learn how to increase visibility of scientists that belong to under repsented groups in the German neuroscience community, to raise awareness for their struggles and obstacles, and to be a helpful ally.
