Several French universities, such as Aix-Marseille Université, université Paris Sciences & Lettres (PSL) and Centrale Supelec, are setting up programs to welcome fellow research scientists from the US who have lost their funding thanks to the big Cheeto.

I’m happy to share that we will be able to provide full registration reimbursement for ~16 GRS participants, as well as partial travel support for ~8 more! We will also provide partial reimbursement for ~15 early career GRC participants selected to give talks!

Beat the deadline, register today!

The American Society for Microbiology is steadfast in its commitment to advancing inclusion, diversity, equity, access and accountability. This commitment becomes even more important in light of the ongoing challenges facing the scientific community. We recognize that recent ASM actions have led some of our members to question our dedication to our values. We hear your concerns and take responsibility for our decisions and mistakes. We are taking actions to more clearly affirm our commitment to ensuring everyone feels respected and valued. We know that it will take time and action to earn and maintain your trust. ASM has a long and proud history as a leader advocating for diversity and equity in the microbial sciences, supporting vital, federally funded programs like ABRCMS, MOSAIC and many other initiatives that foster a more inclusive and welcoming scientific community for all. We reaffirm our existing commitment to the values that these programs represent. Specifically, we will: Ensure that our decision-making processes reflect our values. Continue to review and update a comprehensive diversity, equity and inclusion strategy, with clear action plans and programming. Strengthen partnerships with affiliated societies to advance diversity, inclusion and innovation in science. Leverage our resources and influence to advocate for evidence-based scientific public policy and workforce development. In the face of ongoing threats to science and equity, ASM is dedicated to not only supporting, but also empowering our members—particularly those who have fought for visibility and belonging in our field. We are committed to promoting a future in microbial sciences that honors the contributions of all individuals, and to advocating for evidence-based public policy that serves the needs of the public and the scientific community alike. We have been, and always will be, champions for our members and our community, and our commitment is stronger than ever. (truncated)
