Private Event
BRAINS Fellows 2022 Cohort Retreat
Seattle, WA

Broadening the Representation of Academic Investigators in NeuroScience (BRAINS) is a national program dedicated to advancing diversity and inclusion in neuroscience. BRAINS uses a unique cohort-based professional development approach to explicitly address the inclusion, retention, and advancement of early career (post Ph.D. and pre-tenure) neuroscientists from historically underrepresented and marginalized groups.

The BRAINS experience positively impacts participants’ career trajectories, especially in academic neuroscience, and creates a perpetually empowering community. 

BRAINS has been funded since 2011 by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and is based at the University of Washington.
