“…Microaggressions continue to loom for underrepresented students, as they can both occur by individuals, purposefully or inadvertently, as well as through environmental oppression. (Lee et al, 2020;Marshall et al, 2021;Mills, 2020;Neikirk, Silvers, et al, 2023). Notably, AI may be a new form in which bias continues to be perpetuated since many large language learning models are trained on biased data sets (Roselli et al, 2019).…”

In a time where diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) has become a dog-whistle in some states and a negative attribute (Figure 1), there are still clear deficiencies in the retaining and training of underrepresented individuals, on a wide range of bases beyond only their race . To overcome these barriers, the field has recognized that a broader shift must occur in the field, which includes the prioritization of mentorship, leadership, and career development to promote the training of all individuals. Thus, this special edition highlighted that increasing diversity in science is about the creation of collaborative and supportive networks. Building inclusive communities that provide mentorship, resources, and opportunities for underrepresented groups is vital for their success and retention in the scientific field. This importance of mentorship, leadership, and career development has been exemplified by recent publications that contextualize and propose new forms of mentorship, including multi-mentoring systems and intentional mentoring (

As anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) legislation continues to gain traction, it is essential for those in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM) to grasp its implications and explore ways to preserve inclusive environments. Anti-DEI measures can result in the dismantling of support structures, such as DEI centers and peer counseling groups, leading to a decline in vital support programs on college campuses and beyond. In this Voices article, we examine these emerging challenges and underscore the critical need to reframe DEI as a tool for fostering inclusion and benefits all individuals.
