Colors of the Brain
@UCSD_CoB
We are a @UCSanDiego organization and @kibm_ucsd @IBROorg funded summer research program that mentors students from marginalized backgrounds in neuroscience!
Announcing the 2025 CoB-KIBM @kibm_ucsd Scholars! This year, support from @IBROorg allowed us to fund an additional 2 scholars 🙏A $9,000 stipend will support their research at UCSD and Salk Institute during Summer 2025💪

We are still here! Co-founders Maribel and Christian share their thoughts on the state of things, and how now more than ever we need support from the neuroscience community
Amid DEI funding cuts, trainees are losing pillars of support. Grassroots mentorship organizations are stepping in to continue championing young researchers. @BlackInNeuro @UCSD_CoB By @paigeemiranda thetransmitter.org/qa/we-still-ex…
