While the source text confirms that Vanessa is associated with ALTER (she authored a post on the EA Forum about ALTER), it does not explicitly state her specific roles as 'Board Member & Researcher'. The source only lists 'Contributors 2 Pablo 2 Davidmanheim 1 Leo' without naming Vanessa in that section. The mention of 'Vanessa' in a post title is insufficient to verify the specific roles claimed in the record. The source discusses ALTER's funding and updates but does not provide personnel/staff role information.
