まとめ
多様性,公平性,包摂性 (DEI) のイニシアティブは,すべてのセクターで,特に州レベルの政策と高等教育で,大きな反発に直面しています. この傾向は,科学,技術,工学,数学,医学 (STEMM) の歴史的に疎外された集団の進歩を脅かしています.
科学分野:
- 社会科学
- 政策研究
- 高等教育研究
背景:
- ジョージ・フロイドの殺害は,人種的正義に対する主流の注意を誘発し,さまざまなセクターで多様性,公平性,包摂性 (DEI) のコミットメントを広げた.
- 現在,特に州レベルでは,高等教育を含む様々なセクターに影響を与える,DEIイニシアチブに対する顕著な反発が起こっています.
- 大学入学に関する米国最高裁判所の決定は,DEIに対する反対を強くし,STEMMの疎外された人々を支援するプログラムに対する立法的な行動につながりました.
研究 の 目的:
- 多様性,公平性,インクルーション (DEI) イニシアチブに対する反発の増大を分析する.
- 科学,技術,工学,数学,医学 (STEMM) の歴史的に疎外されたグループに対するこの反発の有害な影響を強調する.
- DEIの擁護者,科学コミュニティ,大学,連邦機関の集団的行動を提唱し,ネガティブな傾向に対抗し,DEIの社会的価値を示します.
主な方法:
- DEIに影響を与える最近の立法行動と政策の質的分析.
- DEIイニシアチブに対する公的議論と制度的反応の見直し
- STEM分野における DEIの役割と課題に関するケーススタディの検討
主要な成果:
- DEIのイニシアチブは大きな反対に直面しており,その実施を損なう立法行動や政策の転換につながっています.
- STEMM内の歴史的に排除され 疎外された人々を支援する取り組みに 過剰な影響を及ぼしています
- 高等教育と州レベルの政策は,DEIのコミットメントからの撤退が最も顕著な分野です.
結論:
- DEIに対する現在の反発は STEMMにおける 平等と包摂の達成に向けた進展に 深刻な脅威をもたらしています
- DEIの原則を擁護し,その本質的な価値を証明するために,様々な利害関係者からの緊急かつ協調的な努力が必要です.
- DEIを学術的・専門的な環境で保護し,発展させるための積極的な戦略を策定する必要があります.

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...

Diversity in Cell Signaling Responses
6.4K
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.
