"Scientists should be taking action to make accessibility a default rather than an afterthought."

Let's start a thread: What changes can professors make right now (both in class and lab) to make STEM more accessible?
#AcademicChatter @AcademicChatter
We'll start: Captioning on all live and recorded lectures! Not only does this help students with disabilities, but it has been shown that everyone benefits from it!!!! ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article….

"Most states are presenting that information in infographics that screen readers cannot read. Many vaccination and testing sites are drive-through only, and many people with disabilities can't drive for a variety of reasons," notes @SabrinaTessEp. hub.jhu.edu/2021/02/23/covid…

Nice stance @NIHDirector, assuming we have the same definition. “Allyship is the practice of emphasizing social justice, inclusion, and human rights by members of an ingroup, to advance the interests of an oppressed or marginalized outgroup”
So, #allyship = #fundblackscientists

"All Americans pay the tax dollars that fund NIH. Inequitable distribution of these dollars is discrimination," writes @MuyinatuBell in a new paper published in @CellPressNews.

We have a lot of work to do, but we are very lucky to have a department that is listening, and more importantly, acting! We will continue to push for change.
Delighted to speak in @JHUBME faculty meeting this morning about #fundblackscientists with @MuyinatuBell. #1 ranked @JHUBME "gets it" and will lead us into the 21st century - diversity brings innovation! #1 ranked dept for a reason. Thanks for the invite and discussion @JHUBME.
