As someone conducting a faculty search right now, I can tell you that the most effective thing the NIH can do to support underrepresented scientists into TT positions is to fund them

@NIHDirector please listen to the pleas of our colleagues, and the data: https://t.co/erfzCgPPAQ to address the 2-fold funding disparity for black scientists. It starts at the top and extends to peers, anti-racist reviewers. Great suggestions in article.

Is this cartoon really suggesting that science up until now has been stagnant and riddled with group think because of racism, whereas 'diversity!' will mean we are about to enter a golden age of scientific breakthroughs and innovation?
