Diversity Equity and Inclusion Statement

CBP Inclusion Statement

The Department of Cell Biology & Physiology (CBP) acknowledges the historical and persistent existence of racism, inequity, and exclusion in the sciences, the academic environment, and society at large and we are committed to combating this inequality.  We recognize that an inclusive, diverse, and equitable environment for faculty, students, postdoctoral/clinical fellows, and staff enriches our university by building creative teams that foster scientific discovery and enhance our teaching mission. As a department, we are passionate about creating and sustaining an inclusive and diverse environment for everyone, are committed to increasing equity and diversity and creating true and evident inclusion, regardless of religion, disability, socioeconomic background, national origin, race, gender identity, age, or sexual orientation.
