Workshop
[Workshop 11] Diversity and inclusion for excellence in science
Research and training using Arabidopsis has been vital to the success of plant science due, in large part, to sustained global collaborations in the plant science community. While recent studies indicate clear benefits of diversity and inclusion, progress in these areas is slow and has been driven by a few countries. This moderated workshop will feature a panel of plant biology faculty that will provide diverse perspectives on the challenges of working within academia, and the benefits of creating and sustaining a diverse community to achieving excellence.
