The Department of Cell and Developmental Biology provides a collaborative and interdisciplinary scientific environment with research spanning a broad range of topics in cell biology, developmental biology, epigenetics, stem cell and regenerative biology, and cell signaling. We are committed to fostering an environment that embraces the diversity of life experiences, identities, and viewpoints represented by our members, and dedicated to providing equitable access to people of all races, ethnicities, genders, ages, sexual orientations, physical and neurocognitive abilities, socioeconomic backgrounds, and religions. A Community and Wellness Committee consisting of department faculty, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, and staff, is guiding our efforts to understand and eliminate both interpersonal and structural barriers within our department, and to ensure educational and professional opportunities for all. We encourage you to read about the Community and Wellness Committee’s mission, and to learn more about its members and activities.
