\"\"<\/p>\n

Inspired by the \u2018Black Lives Matter\u2019 movement and the profound detriments of a lack of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in academia and medicine, a group of trainees within the BU Pulmonary Center founded a trainee-driven initiative called \u201cBU Pulmonary Center- Social Justice Forum (BUPC-SJF)\u201d in June 2020. The goal of the BUPC-SJF is to educate the community about social inequities and disparities rooted in academia and medicine, empathize with one another, and come out as better-informed global citizens in addition to being great scientists and clinicians. Since its commencement, this initiative has grown to be positively welcomed by the BUPC leadership and has been formally included into our weekly departmental conference series as \u2018CCR-SJF\u2019 merger forum.<\/p>\n
