“We’re here, we’re Q.U.E.E.R.!”

Welcome! We are the BU Sargent College of Health & Rehabilitation Sciences Queer Understanding, Equity & Educational Research (Q.U.E.E.R.) Lab. At the Q.U.E.E.R. Lab, we have to primary missions.

1. To foster inclusion and diversity in undergraduate and graduate STEM education
2. To mechanistically characterize the physiology of health inequities in medically marginalized communities.

We approach these aims from both health-related and educational frameworks. Our PIs, Dr. Jesse Moreira-Bouchard and Dr. Lisa Roberts, are both trained as researchers and as teachers, and use the unique insight gained from practicing both methodologies to take a new aim at creating inclusion and equity for all.
