How can we work to establish effective and inclusive teaching and learning environments (especially during pandemic conditions)?

This week, we will be joined by Graham H. Read (he/him). Graham is a PhD candidate in Radiation Biology at UCLA, as well as the chair of the Graduate Program in Biosciences (GPB) Mental Health Committee, a member of the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee, and one of the TA Coordinators for the Life Sciences Core. He is also an Undergraduate Research Mentor at the Undergraduate Research Center – Sciences, where he runs workshops to teach research-based skills to undergraduates. In the lab, Graham is a proud mentor to four terrific students- one from each class year!
