Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
The Boston Bacterial Meeting is deeply committed to supporting a diverse and inclusive community of bacteriologists and providing a welcoming conference experience for all attendees. We welcome scientists of all backgrounds, including race, ethnicity, age, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion/faith, education, socio-economic status, ability, national origin, citizen status, military status, and political affiliation.
To uphold our vision to maintain and promote a culture of equity and inclusion, we will include a demographics research section in the registration process, which will help us improve efforts to foster diversity at BBM. We will also award a number of scholarships for underrepresented minorities and undergraduate students in biomedical sciences. Please visit our scholarships page for more information on these awards.
