At Johns Hopkins, we strive to be a model of a pluralistic society in which we acknowledge, embrace, and engage diverse identities, perspectives, and experiences. We seek to build and buttress an inclusive intellectual and physical environment to ensure that all members of our community know with certainty that they belong at Johns Hopkins.
The Krieger School of Arts and Sciences works within the framework of the Johns Hopkins University Roadmap 2.0 to develop targeted graduate student and faculty recruitment strategies that reflect our diversity goals.
PMB statement
The Biophysics community of Johns Hopkins University recognizes that inclusive excellence is best achieved when the education and research mission is accomplished by a diverse group of faculty, staff, and students working together in a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. Racial inequities affect all aspects of society—including scientific education and research—and we are redoubling our efforts to remedy inequalities in our environment.
