Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in STEM: The Science Behind Bias
Discuss the historical context of bias and exclusion in science from the primary literature to understand the science of bias, why it is present, how it continues to persist across the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields, and identify actionable items to address and overcome these issues. Biology 384K (Topic: DEI IN STEM: SCI BEHIND BIAS) and Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior 384K (Topic 3) may not both be counted.
