NGLs have a passion for collaborative research to understand the complex problems in bioscience. They bring expertise in their field, and offer fresh perspectives to enhance scientific research across bioethics, data visualization, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging (DEI&B), public health, science education and more.
The program is designed to foster professional development, ideation and creativity, and collaboration both among the NGLs and between the NGLs and the Allen Institute.
Next Generation Leaders will complete a three-year term and will have the opportunity to contribute to ongoing research across scientific teams in neuroscience, cell science, immunology, synthetic biology, and data science; engage with team science, big science, and open science practices; and ultimately act as ambassadors for the Allen Institute and open science resources.
