From the Alliance for Visible Diversity in Science at OHSU…
We focus on one central mission – to increase visible diversity within the Graduate Studies programs at Oregon Health and Science University by recruiting, retaining, and most importantly, supporting graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, staff, and faculty members from underrepresented backgrounds.
Community Partner Highlight: NW NOGGIN
(Northwest Neuroscience Outreach Group: Growing in Networks)
NW NOGGIN was co-founded in 2012 by an OHSU alumnus, Bill Griesar, and Portland artist, Jeffrey Leake, as a group focused on STEAM, the integration of art in STEM education. Now a non-profit organization, NW NOGGIN has been spreading brain awareness all across the country, even Capitol Hill. The group strives to bring neuroscience and art to under-served communities and offers researchers unique opportunities to share their science with the public.
