In January, Dr. Drew Rholl and several of his students published an activity as part of the Special Series on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity in Journal for Microbiology and Biology Education. The activity worked with the Be the Match initiative, also known as the National Marrow Donation Program, aimed at improving equity in stem cell donation. This program supported outreach to underrepresented students to increase donor diversity. Dr. Rholl guided the project and hopes you consider implementing it at your school.
