UPenn Department of Cell and Developmental Biology

The Department of Cell and Developmental Biology is committed to fostering an environment that embraces the diversity of our members and provides equitable access to people of different races, ethnicities, genders, ages, sexual orientations, physical and neurocognitive abilities, and religions. An Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Committee, consisting of members of Department Faculty, Postdoctoral Fellows, Graduate Students, and Staff, is guiding our efforts to understand and address the interpersonal and structural biases within our Department, and to proactively remove barriers and create educational and professional opportunities for people underrepresented in science.
