Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

The Department of Physiology shares in the grief, distress, and outrage over the tragic deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, Rayshard Brooks and many others who have been targeted by violence. We stand with the protests against these horrific acts. Sadly, these are not the only examples of systemic injustice we have witnessed in recent years. The current state of affairs is unacceptable. The Physiology Department stands strong in our commitment to students, staff, and faculty. Everyone is welcome and will be treated equitably irrespective of nationality, race, gender, or beliefs.

COVID-19 Response:

In response to the reduced spread of coronavirus among students, the university has moved to Phase 2 of the reentry plan and is adding in-person instruction for more students. Many of our classes will remain online, however, and all classes across campus move to full online after the Thanksgiving break.

Faculty, staff and students are following the guidance of the university. Among the changes, everyone must complete a Wildcat Wellcheck each day before coming to campus and must wear face coverings when on campus.

Most department staff and faculty continue to work remotely and can be contacted by email or phone. Research laboratories are continuing essential activities. Students, staff and faculty should check for updates and guidance on the University's COVID-19 information page. Stay safe.
