Department of Human Genetics Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
The Department of Human Genetics within Emory’s School of Medicine recognizes the need for deliberate actions to address systemic racism through fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion among our faculty, clinicians, staff, and learners. To this end, a DEI Task Force and subsequent DEI Standing Committee were created to identify and prioritize goals and take action steps. Click here to learn more about what we are doing.
