On Monday, September 18th, IMSD@Brown celebrated 15 years with current and former trainees, faculty mentors, program supporters and University leadership.

The programs seek to increase the diversity of the nation's college and university faculties by increasing their ethnic and racial diversity, to maximize the educational benefits of diversity, and to increase the number of professors who can and will use diversity as a resource for enriching the education of all students.

In this 3-part training module, participants will learn how to effectively communicate the what, why, how, and outcomes of your scientific research.

Congratulations Dr. Lomax! We are so proud of you!

For more than a decade, leaders of the IMSD@Brown program have worked not only to expand diversity among doctoral students in the University’s science, technology, engineering and math programs, but also to propel the career success of underrepresented students over the long term — in effect, increasing diversity in STEM on a much larger scale.
