The event is one part of the NIH's recognition of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. This one-day event called “BelongMed: Embrace Belonging in Biomedical Healthcare” emphasizes the importance of creating an inclusive environment where all individuals feel valued and integrated. It aims to improve both patient care and the work culture within the biomedical field, fostering innovation across science, encouraging networking for career advancement, and supporting not only one another but also our entire workforce at NIH in the field of biomedical healthcare for our patients.
The Office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI), the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), The Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) and the NIH Chapter of the Korean-American Women in Science and Engineering (KWISE) will host a special day of science talks, networking, and Korean food and culture on Thursday, May 30, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the Masur Auditorium and on the FAES Terrace, Building 10.
