Resumen
Los estadounidenses asiáticos en Ciencia, Tecnología, Ingeniería y Matemáticas (STEM) se enfrentan a estereotipos debido a la agrupación monolítica. Se propone desagregar los subgrupos étnicos para abordar las disparidades y promover el cambio dentro de STEM.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Ciencias sociales
- Educación STEM
- Diversidad e inclusión
Sus antecedentes:
- Los estadounidenses de origen asiático a menudo se perciben como un grupo homogéneo en STEM.
- Esta visión monolítica oscurece las diversas experiencias y desafíos que enfrentan los diversos subgrupos étnicos asiáticos.
- Los estereotipos existentes contribuyen a las disparidades dentro de la fuerza laboral STEM y la cartera académica.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Desafiar la percepción homogénea de los asiáticos estadounidenses en STEM.
- Abogar por la desagregación de los datos y el reconocimiento de diversos subgrupos étnicos asiáticos.
- Proponer soluciones prácticas para promover la equidad y la inclusión en STEM para todos los estadounidenses de origen asiático.
Principales métodos:
- Análisis cualitativo de la literatura y los datos existentes sobre los estadounidenses de origen asiático en STEM.
- Examen de las implicaciones políticas y prácticas para las instituciones STEM.
- Desarrollo de un marco para reconocer y abordar la diversidad de los subgrupos.
Principales resultados:
- El mito de la "minoría modelo" y la agrupación monolítica crean barreras significativas.
- La desagregación de los datos revela experiencias variadas en diferentes grupos étnicos asiáticos.
- Las actuales iniciativas de diversidad STEM pueden no abordar las necesidades específicas de los subgrupos.
Conclusiones:
- Reconocer la heterogeneidad de los estadounidenses asiáticos es crucial para las estrategias efectivas de diversidad e inclusión en STEM.
- Se necesitan cambios de políticas y prácticas para ir más allá de un enfoque único para todos.
- La aplicación de intervenciones específicas para los subgrupos puede ayudar a desmantelar los estereotipos y reducir las disparidades.

01:22Diversity in Cell Signaling Responses
6.5K
The physiological function of a cell and cellular communication are outcomes of a range of extrinsic signals, intracellular signaling pathways, and cellular responses. No two cell types express the same repertoire of signaling components. Receptors are highly selective for their cognate ligands, but once activated, they can alter multiple cellular processes such as DNA transcription, protein synthesis, and metabolic activity.

Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

01:06Multipotency and Niche of Bulge Stem Cell
3.7K
A hair follicle or HF is a small part of the skin that produces the hair shaft. Paul Gerson Unna was the first to observe a bulge in the human hair follicle's outer root sheath (ORS). The bulge is present between the sebaceous gland and the arrector pili muscle and is the niche for hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). The bulge is also a niche for melanocyte stem cells, and their loss results in graying of hair. The HFSCs express Sox9 and Lhx2, which help them maintain stemness and prevent...

Stem cell research aims to find ways to use stem cells to regenerate and repair cellular damage. Over time, most adult cells undergo the wear and tear of aging and lose their ability to divide and repair themselves. Stem cells do not display a particular morphology or function. Adult stem cells, which exist as a small subset of cells in most tissues, keep dividing and can differentiate into a number of specialized cells generally formed by that tissue. These cells enable the body to renew and...

01:27Source And Potency Of Stem Cells
4.9K
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells with extensive self-renewal properties that help them maintain their population during the fetal and adult stages of life. They can specialize in all cell types of the human body. However, their differential potential may vary and can be classified into five types. Stem cells can be (1) Totipotent, (2) Pluripotent, (3) Multipotent, (4) Oligopotent, and (5) Unipotent. Each stem cell has a specific origin; the fertilized egg or zygote is a totipotent cell and...
