Our core beliefs
IONs actively works to promote equity, diversity, and inclusion in all aspects of our work, including recruitment, mentoring, collaboration, and authorship. We aim to provide a safe, supportive, and respectful environment where all members can thrive scientifically and professionally.
​
We recognize that systemic barriers exist in science and are committed to continual learning, reflection, and action to reduce bias and improve inclusivity within our group and the broader chemistry community.
Discrimination, harassment, and exclusion have no place in our group!
