Working Toward Diversity and Inclusion in Neural Engineering

IEEE Pulse. 2021 Sep-Oct;12(5):19-23. doi: 10.1109/MPULS.2021.3113093.

Abstract

How do we begin to consider ways to broaden the reach of our field, both to engage younger students and also those from different ethnicities, classes, and socio-economic backgrounds? Where are the opportunities to make our research, our laboratory, our surrounding community more open, inclusive, and diverse? By what means can we increase outreach in our communities, providing avenues for diverse students to explore STEM topics and engage in research?
