Bridging the gap: pathway programs for inclusion and persistence in microbiology

It all begins with an idea.

Microbiology plays an important role in most sectors. Future progress in critical areas requires diverse workforce development. In this commentary, we outline a pathway program that aims to provide equitable exposure to high-impact research experiences and course-based instruction to provide crucial training in growing areas of microbiology (phage discovery, synthetic biology and data science/AI).
