SBS Retreat

LGBTQ+STEM Interest Group

We are seeking to create change in our campus community with an inclusive environment for LGBTQ+ individuals and allies.

Group Bio

We are a multistage career level organization composed of undergraduates, graduates, postdocs and faculty to provide a community for queer individuals in STEM and to establish a professional network of queer scientists. We promote opportunities for mentorship among undergraduates, graduates, postdocs and faculty. We foster collaborations with other groups such as SACNAS, oSTEM, LGBTQ+ resource center, Office of Equity and Diversity, SBS, and other STEM departments on campus. We operate a biannual ‘Queer Scientist Seminar Series’, literature discussions, and social events. Our goal for 2020 is host two more Queer Scientist Seminar Speakers, continue literature discussions and socials in a virtual environment, and form collaborations with the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee in SBS.
