We value community, accessibility, and growth and recognize the strengths they bring to our mission. BGA aims to produce high-quality, ethical research across the world that advances the scientific literature in innovative and impactful ways for people of all backgrounds. Science benefits from having both a growing and broad research team and a growing and broad group of research participants. The breadth of perspectives and ideas are enhanced by collaborative groups and work environments that embrace community, accessibility, and growth, and the quality of data and scientific contributions are improved with the inclusion of a wide range of subjects.
