NRMN in the News

In late July of 2016, the Association of Public & Land-Grant Universities, in collaboration with the Coalition of Urban Serving Universities, released a report entitled Increasing Diversity in the Biomedical Research Workforce: Actions for Improving Evidence. The report was the result of working groups that more than 70 experts across 28 universities and collectively developed the recommended actions for improving evidence. Members of the groups were nominated by their university presidents and chancellors, and included leaders of the institution’s research enterprise as well as content experts in areas such as organizational change, talent development, and recruitment. Among these were several prominent faculty who are leading initiatives at NRMN and across the Diversity Program Consortium.
