Diversity and Responsible Research and Innovation (DRIVERS)
Source BIH/NeuroCure. The Journal Club (JC) Diversity and Responsible Research and Innovation – DRIVERS – offers a space for exchange on the intersections between “Responsible Research and Innovation” (RRI) and Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) in science. As part of a monthly meeting, we discuss selected literature on RRI and DEI. The focus is primarily on cross-cutting issues, the role of research assessment, and its reform.
DRIVERS is a continuation of the previous JC Diversity and is jointly organized by colleagues from the BIH and BIH QUEST Center, the Einstein Center for Neurosciences and the NeuroCure | Cluster of Excellence.
The next DRIVERS session will take place:
