Keep up-to-date with IBRO news Gender Balance in the Latin American Neuroscience Community Join IBRO-LARC and UDELAR in shaping the future of neuroscience in Latin America! All neuroscientists working in Latin America and the Caribbean are invited to participate in the second phase of the “Gender Balance in the Latin American Neuroscience Community” project, a follow-up to the study published in IBRO Neuroscience Reports (Silva et al, 2021). This phase includes a vital survey to track gender trends in leadership roles and careers in neuroscience in Latin America. Your insights are crucial to improving our understanding and breaking perceived and real barriers to gender equality. The 20-minute survey can be completed until 30 September 2024. For any inquiries: genderbalance.survey@fcea.edu.uy Complete the survey IBRO in Action IBRO Rising Stars Awards: 10 years empowering neuroscientists and building capacity for research excellence worldwide Since their launch in 2015, the IBRO Rising Stars Awards have aimed to support diverse, early-career neuroscientists in establishing their own laboratories. In recent years, the program has been reorganized to better meet the evolving needs of the scientific community. The change from Return Home Fellowships to Rising Stars Awards reflects IBRO’s commitment to supporting early-career researchers, not only in returning to their home countries but also establishing a lab elsewhere, with the overarching goal of building capacity for increased impact in their respective communities. From the program’s implementation, the program has supported the establishment of 74 labs in 25 countries around the world. This interview series highlights the journeys of five of these awardees — Dr. Maryam Ghorbani, Dr. Urtė Neniškytė, Dr. Felipe Gomes, Dr. Opeyemi Ogunsuyi, and Dr. Silvia Pozzi — whose groundbreaking research has benefited greatly from the support of this prestigious grant. The Rising Stars Awards call is currently open – find out how to submit your application before the deadline on 15 October 2024. Read the interview series Innovators of tomorrow: learn about the Summer Studentship for Black undergraduates of the BRaIN Program The final presentations by recipients of the Summer Studentship for Black Undergraduates took place at the McGill University Health Centre’s Research Institute on 13 August 2024. Funded by IBRO and hosted by the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee of the Brain Repair and Integrative Neuroscience (BRaIN) Program, the event showcased the students’ hard work and dedication. Since its launch in 2021, this Summer Studentship program has provided students with opportunities to pursue careers in neuroscience and related fields, fostering a more diverse and inclusive scientific community.
