Creating a diverse scientific community is a key goal and challenge in today’s academic world. This full-day event highlights leading researchers and emphasizes the importance of diversity across culture, gender, LGBTQ+, and people with disabilities. We aim to explore the impact of diversity in science, the challenges faced by scientists from underrepresented groups, and steps to foster an inclusive environment in STEM.

The event is aimed at all students and employees.
