About the event
Are you a scientist passionate about equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility in the science community? Join us for the I.D.E.A.S. Journal Club, a monthly gathering designed to foster discussion and broaden awareness of challenges in the scientific community.
October's I.D.E.A.S. Journal Club will surround accessibility in STEM education based on the abstract and discussion section of Access Needs: Centering Students and Disrupting Ableist Norms in STEM by Reinholz et al. Materials will be provided during the discussion.
At I.D.E.A.S. Journal Club, we provide a meal and a thought-provoking resource for discussion. This month, we will be providing sushi and bubble tea for lunch! Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars are especially encouraged to attend, but all are welcome! There will also be a draw for science-themed prizes at the end!
Spaces are limited due to our current funding, so be sure to register early and before Wednesday, October 9th at 5:00…
