Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

ASGCT's DEI Mandate

ASGCT focuses on diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts that benefit the future and current members of the Society and the communities they serve. Underrepresented groups and individuals within the bio-medical field are essential for scientific and technological innovations. Our goal is to increase awareness and opportunities for education. These efforts are guided by the DEI Committee.

Summer 2022

ASGCT staff worked with teachers from four Milwaukee Public Schools on gene and cell therapy-related experiments. The participants then piloted experiments in their own classrooms with Society-provided equipment.
