Visionary ideals13
(a) Location/lab size is not a predictor of training
3
Actionable recommendations11
(b) Exit interviews to ask about how people felt about it as an anonymous form
4
Visionary ideals10
(b) Everyone's voice should be heard!
5
Actionable recommendations10
incentives for getting people to sign up for mentoring.
6
Measureable milestones9
gender paygap of people who graduate from Rosetta labs is reduced to zero
7
Actionable recommendations9
(a) coding events, virtual XRWs, regular online talks by other labs, other virtual training opportunities
8
Actionable recommendations9
Increasing student and postdoc representation at the table where decisions are made (the PI meeting, in example) by having student and postdoc representatives
9
Measureable milestones8
Measure/survey how RC members deal with child care
10
Visionary ideals7
Reducing barriers to entry to the Rosetta community could help new members integrate more easily.
11
Measureable milestones7
Measure the feeling of inclusivity among community? Questionnaires?
12
Visionary ideals6
Advocate for grad student unionization + higher pay
13
Measureable milestones6
Measure participation of on-going communication Slack, google-groups, git-hub for inclusion of diverse voices.
14
Actionable recommendations6
Open letter advocating for on-site day care for grad students, post-docs and PIs
15
Actionable recommendations6
Make a beginner's/newcomer's guide to being a member of the Rosetta community (not just for coding but also for traditions/what to expect)
16
Actionable recommendations6
Identify a moderator in your lab space/ at rosettacon/ at bigger meetings/ rotational chairing of meetings to control flow of discussion - each lab representative reports back to JEDI if this is happening? Still thinking about this metric- hard to address impartially
17
Visionary ideals5
Our room was 3 white men and we recognize that it was a limited world view
18
Visionary ideals5
Time put into work → success? Some labs believe in this, some don’t. How do we make sure lab environments are setting up success for different personality types/ different life situations.
19
Measureable milestones5
As an idea to be iterated on: if X% of the community is not based in the US, X% of RosettaCommons meetings should not be in the US / timezones should be favorable for that group
20
Measureable milestones5
Possibly tracking publications, grants by diversity to capture people being left out.
21
Visionary ideals4
Social situations - native/ non native english speakers / louder presence dominates discussion not equal opportunity to express thoughts
22
Visionary ideals4
Ask more diverse labs to join Rosetta community
23
Measureable milestones4
Demographic data (gender, race/ethnicity, etc.) of Commons members, PIs, and conference attendees
24
Measureable milestones4
Diverse speakers invitations
25
Measureable milestones4
(b) seeing increased number from underrepresented groups, increased happiness/attendance
26
Measureable milestones4
JEDI monitoring diversity in PIs, Postdocs, Grad students
27
Measureable milestones4
Checking diversity statistics over time
28
Measureable milestones4
time to first [milestones] (first-author paper, fellowship, professorship, tenure, etc.)
29
Actionable recommendations4
Determine if UW money rules are making it too hard to acquire/use the dependent care grants
30
Actionable recommendations4
Bring back JEDI keynote talks at conferences (note: we tried 3 speakers and they all declined. It's gonna come back next RC)
31
Visionary ideals3
Rosetta should be a place where everyone is treated fairly
32
Visionary ideals3
What we think has been successful: inclusivity, REU program. Consider expanding the REU program.
33
Measureable milestones3
Potential centralized clusters/ sharing resources for newer labs - computational hours / year per student
34
Actionable recommendations3
Demanding that people work > 8h puts people in an awkward space/ toxic space, Mentors check in for mental health / PI could be supportive in some cases but it could also be pressure from lab environment / larger cultural discussion
35
Actionable recommendations3
Introduce the idea of the Diversity Slide to all Rosetta Commons PIs to adopt within their own lab.
36
Visionary ideals1
Access to compute resources amongst academic lab (established lab vs new PI)
37
Actionable recommendations1
post demographics of the community on the website
