JDRF is pleased to support two Research Excellence, Diversity, and Independence Early Career Transition Awards in partnership with CIHR > bit.ly/49vYAEU These awards foster diversity in science and support excellent type 1 diabetes research from underrepresented groups.














Recognizing the need to learn and raise awareness of racism and injustice in our society and in academia, we (@bverchere lab at @UBC) started having monthly discussion on various topics of inequity since the summer of 2020.

Dr Ramon Klein Geltink @rkleingeltink @BCChildrensHosp is trying to make immunotherapies more effective by altering the metabolism of immune cells. This work could uncover innovative ways of using metabolism to enhance the immune system’s ability to target cancer.


I’m not sure how I feel about #internationaldayofwomenansgirlsinscience this year. The fact that you can go from prize winning scientist to losing your job in 12 months because you were furloughed for childcare and couldn’t apply for grants suggests we need more than just a day.

Please RT. My lab has space and resources for a few new senior members, post-doctoral fellows and/or research associates. We strive for an inclusive and fun environment, and to conduct mechanistic research with real impact. More info @ Google or ORCID orcid.org/0000-0002-7523…
