[#DIV28SUPER] Timely article on making science more welcoming and inclusive

Hi All,

 

I’d like to call your attention to a timely article in press at Cell titled “Starting Conversations toward Inclusion”.  

Here’s a short summary and link to the paper:

Communal discussions on anti-racism and inclusion are crucial to addressing the history of racism in scientific communities. Unfortunately, universities are not universally implementing these conversations. We provide a blueprint for initiating and executing student-led discussions to empower young scientists to take action toward making science more welcoming and inclusive.

I hope you are all doing well!  Wendy
