As the year draws to a close, so does my 3-year appointment on the @MicrobioSoc#EDI Members Panel. I would like to thank the Society for allowing me to play my small part in making Microbiology more accessible for historically marginalised communities.
Everyone should have an equitable opportunity to pursue and enjoy science, develop skills, and share their unique perspectives, so they can reach their full potential.
