Tired of wondering why conference speaker panels are not more diverse, Christina Termini, PhD, MM, decided to do something about it.
Termini, one of a handful of Hispanic female faculty members at Fred Hutch Cancer Center, created the Atlas of Inspiring Hispanic/Latinx Scientists, an online compendium of nearly 400 Hispanic and Latinx scientists that is now part of Fred Hutch’s website.
“It’s important to give back to my community by showcasing that we are here and bringing awareness to the amazing people that are part of our community,” said Termini, an assistant professor in the Translational Science and Therapeutics and Human Biology Divisions at Fred Hutch.
