#Neuroracism highlights both historic and present racial inequalities relating to the brain. This year, we are sharing facts around disorders that are common in the Black community. We begin by placing neurological disorders in the wider context of worldwide disability. 🧵: 1/6

Happy #BINW26 !! I'm Dr. Clíona Murray and I am the Co-Director of Programming at Black In Neuro. The future that I'm reimagining is one where we can authentically show up in a space that was never designed for us. Each and every member of the BIN community remind me of that. So, thank you all 🫶🏽

I am Betty, a PhD candidate at Emory University. My research focuses on understanding how changes in RNA can disrupt brain function. I imagine a future where scientific discovery is strengthened by inclusive collaborations across countries. (I will be moderating a BINW panel on this on Thursday!)
