The IBL Core Affiliate Programme enables us to engage a broader community of scientists while maintaining a sustainable level of support. It is designed for research groups aligned with IBL’s values of openness, collaboration, and technical excellence, but for whom full partnership is not yet feasible.

Affiliates benefit from light-touch engagement, including strategic and technical guidance, as well as access to the IBL community and its shared resources. Launched as a pilot, the programme aims to foster new collaborations, support best practices, and grow a vibrant, connected neuroscience ecosystem.
