This article is a part of our CTSC special feature series.
As we begin to reflect on conversations we’ve started through our Mission: Health Equity Challenge Series (Mission: HECS) and related events that center principles and values of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) in research and beyond, we look forward to kicking off three new DEIA tracks for our research and caregiver communities.
The three tracks are: (1) Research Equity, Accessibility, Diversity, and Inclusion (READI) Research Policy Impact Series, (2) READI Special Populations Roundtable Talks, and a (3) READI Community Engagement Series.
