ABOUT BISHAKHA MONA

I lead at the intersection of science and strategy, helping organizations identify where bold investment in discovery research can create transformative impact.As an advisor at the Science Philanthropy Alliance, I have shaped scientific funding strategy for multiple HNWI and philanthropic foundations, including through the Audacious Project. My work spans the full strategic cycle: identifying underfunded research frontiers, conducting rigorous scientific due diligence, authoring landscape analyses that inform multi-million dollar funding decisions, and advising scientific and non-scientist leaders on where the field is headed and why it matters.My scientific foundation gives me the credibility to engage at the highest levels of scientific discourse while translating complexity into strategy. I have worked across neuroscience, Alzheimer\'s disease, chronic pain, aging biology, and open science. Outside my core work, I am interested in advancing women\'s health as a scientific priority, particularly in pain research and neurodegeneration where the evidence gaps are large and the stakes are high.I’m always looking for ways to expand my impact and engage in opportunities that align with my expertise and vision for advancing science through strategic investment.
