Laying the groundwork to make diversity, equity, and inclusion front and center in clinical and translational research

“…Rubio et al report women and members of underrepresented groups remain persistently underrepresented among principal investigators in the National Institute of Health's CTSA program while women have greater representation as participants in the career development and training programs, and non-White individuals are better represented in the training programs [10].
