NORDP has invited Dr. Marie Bernard, Rhonda Davis, and Dr. Travis York to deliver a keynote panel to kick-off the NORDP 2024 Conference on Monday, April 29, 2024. The structure of the panel will include opening remarks from each guest speaker outlining important diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Science Foundation (NSF), and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).
“When I think about how to make meaningful change to increase access and opportunities for all people, research development professionals are well-positioned to build the capacity of institutions and organizations through thoughtful design.” — Travis York (AAAS)
“My role as the NIH Chief Officer for Scientific Workforce Diversity is to work across NIH, visioning at the 50,000-foot-level, to foster a diversity of perspectives in science.” — Marie Bernard (NIH)
“I am excited to share how NSF thinks both about the research integrity space and about supporting researchers as they currently exist.” — Rhonda Davis (NSF)
All the speakers are looking forward to engaging with the NORDP audience. The keynote panel will feature a moderated discussion and include time for audience questions.
The invited panelists and the conference planning committee are so excited to share this conversation with #NORDP2024 attendees.
