Now more than ever - we want to hear from our LGBTQIA+ colleagues worldwide and learn about their needs. If you are #LGBTQIA + in #neuroscience , please share your input. If you're not, please share this post.
With colleagues at @network_alba, I'm running an international climate survey for #LGBTQIA+ people in #neuroscience (including #psychology, #psychiatry, etc). It takes 10-20 min & you can enter a drawing for gift cards.
Please repost & share w/colleagues.
