What if Plant Scientists were as Diverse as the Plants we Study? by Jen Nemhauser and Liz Haswell
The DiversifyPlantSci Database
The North American Arabidopsis Steering Committee (NAASC) is committed to promoting a global plant sciences community that reflects the true diversity of all its members.
To further this mission, the NAASC Diversity and Inclusion Task Force have created the DiversifyPlantSci online resource, a list of plant biologists from under-represented groups to reference as you seek speakers, reviewers, and participants for career or mentorship opportunities.
We hope to increase diversity and inclusion by making it easy to expand invitations past one’s personal networks.
Add your information to the database! Anyone who belongs to an underrepresented or marginalized group in academia is welcome.
Access the list to extend invitations or disseminate information to specific individuals:
