Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
A commitment to diversity and inclusion goes beyond just hiring strategies; it manifests in daily behavior within the lab group. Curating a diverse environment means little if it is not also safe, equitable, and inclusive.
In the Nottingham Lab…
- We respect all people and celebrate our differences
- We recognize that diversity contributes to our success
- We use inclusive language in the workplace
- We believe Black lives matter
- We believe Trans lives matter
- We stand with the Asian American Pacific Islander community against AAPI hate
- We are grateful to live and work on the ancestral homelands of the Upper Skagit Indian Tribe
