These are ‘Interesting Times’ for LGBTQIA+ Science and Scientists
These are ‘Interesting Times’ for LGBTQIA+ Science and Scientists
By Claire Thomas and Imge Ozugergin

It has been heartening to see that many of the major scientific societies have recently issued strong statements declaring that they still recognize the value of diversity in science, and that many of our allies have reached out to express their support. We are profoundly grateful for both of these. However, it seems possible that major scientific societies may soon be one of the last places where inclusion in science is actively promoted, and so the ASCB LGBTQ+, Maximizing Access to Cell Biology for PEERS, and Women in Cell Biology Committees are now more important than ever. We thank ASCB for their on-going support of our efforts. It’s going to be a bumpy ride, but we will endure.
