The organizing committee is pleased to welcome you to BE-STEMM 2022, the inaugural virtual, national meeting of the Canadian Black Scientists Network. Envisioned as the first in an annual series, BE-STEMM provides a unique opportunity for engagement across regions, scholarly fields, sectors, and career stages. We invite you to explore our rich, four-day program, which started as a dream in 2021, now made concrete thanks to the contributions of many.
We especially thank our work-study students Tanay Pankaj Sharma, Josiah Nyembwa, and Marium Rubab.
