#BlackInNeuroWeek
The theme for 2026 #BlackInNeuroWeek was "Preserving Brain Health in a World Meant to Destroy It".

Dr. Raina Croff summarized research on how multiple stressors of gentrification impacts Black seniors.

I imagine data centers are causing similar harms for communities impacted. #NeuroRacism
🚨You can join the #BINW26 keynote address with Dr. Croff on YouTube right now!

My journey into neuro started thru Work-Study. joined a neurobiology lab as an RA working on neuronal apoptosis w/ lots of time at the bench 🥼

Researchers, see if you support RAs in your lab through work-study! a game-changer for me! 1/

From undergrad thru the beginning of grad school, I used to compete in Latin ballroom dance on the collegiate and amateur circuit. Partly why I chose NYU for grad school, to be closer to dance action.
Still love partner dancing 💃🏾

2) Check out #BlackInNeuroWeek. It was wrapping up as this was all unfolding, and it’s really worth checking out, especially if you missed the last day.

"But in addition to building networks and confidence, as well as validating that one isn’t alone, it’s also important to remember that diversity drives innovation."
