DIVERSITY, EQUITY, ACCESSIBILITY, AND INCLUSION
The Psychology of Sport Injury Laboratory is dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive, collaborative, and equitable learning and research environment. We welcome and embrace researchers of all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, and abilities. We meet people where they are at and encourage a growth mindset to take on challenges and learn from them. Below is a list of our specific values that helps to guide our work to address inequalities in science.
