BNA Local Group Representatives prepare for annual forum
The BNA’s network of Local Groups – groups of BNA members building up cross-sector and cross-institutional collaborative communities in their towns and cities across the UK and beyond – has been growing.
Each Local Group is supported by a team of Representatives – BNA members from the different institutions that make up each town or city’s local community. These volunteers represent the needs and interests of their Local Group to the BNA Council, but they also support their members to come together and take local action themselves, directly.
This September, your Local Group Reps will be meeting in Birmingham at the annual BNA Local Groups Forum to decide on strategic priorities for the year ahead.

What priorities would you like your Local Group Rep to raise?
Whether it’s developing career development opportunities in translational research at Imperial, or improving regional connectivity across the North East of the UK, BNA members are coming together in their towns and cities, with the support of their Reps, to strengthen local neuroscience in ways that matter to them.
What would you like to see change in your local area – or nationally? How could BNA members work together to make it happen over the next year?
We want to hear what matters to you. Tell your Local Group Representative what you care about, what challenges you’re facing and what you’d like to see the BNA doing differently or doing more of. And if you’re not yet a BNA member, now is a great time to get involved. Membership gives you a voice in our community and opportunities to connect with other neuroscientists, shape what we do and help influence the future of neuroscience.
Find and join your Local Group, and contact your Local Group Representative today.
Your ideas matter, your voice matters. We're listening.
