We have so much data on why we need #equity in #science programs in Canada. Systemic bias is real and is negatively affecting excellent scientists on a daily basis in Canada. See 🧵⬇️
Excellence lives in every population group. And in fact, diverse science teams produce highly innovative work. Even if it is often ignored by the 'mainstream'. Excellent. But ignored. That is why we need equity programs in science. 5/5 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.19…

Thanku @AndyFillmoreHFX 4 highlighting the enhanced #research #excellence #innovation #science that comes from ensuring #diversity #inclusion #equity are central to who we does & how we do research. Leveraging all the talent & eliminating historical bias = excellence in research
