Lab Values

Inequity and racism are pervasive in science. The Rosato lab is committed to supporting and fighting against this. This will include listening and learning, as well as actively fostering a culture that contributes to positive social change in our community. We are dedicated to speaking up for equity and standing against racial injustice in order to build an actively antiracist community at Dartmouth and the surrounding area. We will not silently tolerate harassment or discrimination of any form. As we challenge ourselves to continuously listen and learn, we strive to be a force for positive change against racism and discrimination.

We encourage everyone to educate themselves on the deep-seated biases that exist in science and academia and reflect on how they can create positive change to combat this. The Bhalla lab’s equity reading list is a rich resource containing links to literature on strategies to improve equity, culturally competent mentoring, and studies revealing bias/disparities in all aspects of academia (including funding, peer review and training).
