In BrainWorlds, we embrace diversity. Achieving excellence in science extends beyond groundbreaking discoveries. It requires a variety of perspectives, cultural influences, and backgrounds to foster a distinctive and thriving work environment.
Collectively, we endeavor to position the BrainWorlds Community as not just a pioneer in neuroscientific research and education, but also as a guiding light for inclusiveness and diversity within the scientific community.
