Abstract
Attending and participating in scientific research meetings and conferences is a key mechanism for researchers to share information and knowledge, build networks, and establish relationships and collaborations to support career development. In the UK, researchers from minoritised or underrepresented groups, may have a different experience at a conference than their peers. As a high profile provider of genomics-focussed life science conferences, Wellcome Connecting Science is committed to ensuring that our events are as inclusive as possible. Here we discuss our commitments to improving access and inclusion for everyone at our scientific conferences and research meetings, and we encourage others in the sector to reflect and consider how they can also support equitable experiences.
