We’re committing
The Genomic Education team at The Jackson Laboratory is committed to creating diverse and inclusive educational programs where all students, trainees, learners, staff and visitors feel valued and are empowered to participate in our mission to improve human health through genomics research, scientific resources and education. We believe human diversity is an essential ingredient for empowering the global biomedical community, and therefore our programs should reflect, embrace and celebrate the diversity of our world.
We recognize that diverse teams lead to novel and innovative problem solving (1, 2, 3) and that cognitive diversity improves recruitment, selection, and creation of more engaged teams with higher productivity (4, 5).
Now more than ever, we maintain our commitment, and have redoubled our efforts, to recruit a wide range of learners from a breadth of backgrounds, to reach wider audiences, and to further develop supportive and inclusive environments for our diverse learning communities.
