Being a student rep in faculty hiring committee is rewarding, and simultaneously frightening - every candidate is SO impressive. I truly appreciate my program’s efforts (MCDB@UofM) in amplifying trainees’ voices in this, among many other things. ❤️
Talking about INCLUSION and other “controversial” words to the visiting PhD recruits this morning sure got their attention. STEM training that is not inclusive, equitable and accessible is not high-quality training. Most students want a safe and supportive place to do kick-ass research 🧪
