We purposefully recruit people from all backgrounds with many different types of experiences - past Associate profiles includes those with undergrads in Biology to PhDs in physics; they’ve worked as political researchers, entomologists and dental hygienists - or they haven’t worked at all Diversity is our strength - more than half our program alumni are women and more than half are visible minorities, joining us from around the globe.
