Subject: Workshop on Promoting An Inclusive Culture - May 3

Understanding and Addressing Implicit Bias: Promoting An Inclusive Culture<https://app.joinhandshake.com/events/1024872/share_preview>
Tuesday May 3, 2:00-3:30pm ET | Virtual

Presented by Dr. Kuheli Dutt, Assistant Dean for DEI, School of Science

Implicit biases and associations impact how we perceive people, including their professional capabilities. This is especially relevant to marginalized groups, who are often underrepresented in various fields, especially in STEM fields. Underrepresented groups (women, people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, disabled individuals) face greater biases, and typically leave STEM fields at higher rates than majority groups. This session will provide a deeper understanding of bias, including systemic bias, which exists within the larger system of implicit biases and stereotypes prevalent in our society and in academia. This session will offer guidelines on how to promote a more inclusive and equitable culture and work environment.



Don’t hesitate to contact me if any questions.

Thank you!
