A shared direction for learning, contribution, and long-term change.

01

Guiding pillar

Our Aim

The initiative aims to expand computational neuroscience knowledge, education, and early exposure across Africa. By collaborating with established institutions and programs, ACNEI broadens access, strengthens representation, and supports young African scholars to contribute to local and global scientific advancement.

02

Guiding pillar

Our Vision

To provide a future where young Africans are active contributors in global computational neuroscience research—driving innovation, discovery, and leading transformative projects with global impact.

03

Guiding pillar

Our Objectives

Build a strong educational foundation in computational sciences for young and promising scholars across Africa. Provide accessible, high-quality training and mentorship through virtual and hybrid programs. Bridge the continental gap in representation, participation, and expertise in computational neuroscience. Promote diversity, equity, and inclusion within neuroscience research, training, and academic communities across Africa.

Purpose in practice
