Kristen Parrish opened last week's Natural Sciences Inclusion Summit 2022 with words that set the stage for the daylong event. 

“It’s all about connections,” said the associate director of the Research for Inclusive STEM Education (RISE) Center at Arizona State University.

The summit, which took place Nov. 9 at ASU's Memorial Union, brought together 19 speakers from the university community to discuss current research that identifies and addresses inequities in STEM education. The event was hosted by The College of LIberal Arts and Sciences and the RISE Center.
