Happy #BINW25! What a whirlwind it's been since we started, but I credit so much of my progress to the community I've found through blackinneuro.bsky.social.

In honor of 5 years of #BIN, we'd love for you to share your Then & Now posts, just remember to use the hashtag #BlackInNeuroRollCall.
Text on a dynamic background with photos of Brielle in her lab as a postdoc and her lab at Harvard. The text reads, “Celebrating 5 years of diversifying the neurosciences. In July 2020, I was in the 3rd year of a postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford, studying attention dysfunction in epilepsy. Now, I’m an assistant professor at Harvard, leading a lab investigating circuit mechanisms of attention and cognition in health and disease. #BINW25 #5YearsofBIN

A Then and Now post with photos from 2020 and 2025. It reads CELEBRATING 5 YEARS OF DIVERSIFYING THE NEUROSCIENCES. In July 2020, I was finishing my third year as a PhD student at UC Irvine. Worried about advancing to candidacy and hoping to teach someday. Now I'm starting my fourth year as an Assistant Professor at the University of Minnesota! I teach multiple neuroscience courses, lead outreach, and direct programs that support our communities! The Black In Neuro logo is in the bottom left hand corner with #BINW25 #5YearsOfBIN. Colorful banners are across the top and bottom of the page.

Black In Neuro membership has grown tremendously since our founding in 2020! Composed of primarily students and trainees, our community is home to many career trajectories. We also showcase engagement from our online community through social media during our flagship Black In Neuro Week.
The document celebrates Black In Neuro Week 2022, a pivotal event uniting Black neuroscientists globally through networking, collaboration, and professional development. It highlights the community's growth, especially among students, trainees, postdocs, faculty, and professionals since the founding of BIN. Testimonials from Samira and Lindsay on social media reflect the event's inspiring impact, emphasizing solidarity and representation in the field. The document also features prominent voices like Angeline Dukes, PhD, and Ishmail Abdus-Saboor, expressing joy and optimism for the future contributions of Black scholars in neuroscience. Black In Neuro Hashtags have trended on X (formally known as Twitter with #BlackInNeuro #BlackInNeuroRollCall #neuroscience #BlackJounreyToNeuro #Neuroacrossthediaspora
