Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) are core to fostering innovative thinking. Existing theories demonstrate that to facilitate inclusion, multiple types of exclusionary dynamics, such as self-segregation, communication apprehension, and stereotyping and stigmatizing, must be overcome [11]. A diverse group of people tends to surface different perspectives, which help to understand and address D&I. Fostering D&I in research communities must address issues related to inclusive interpersonal and small group dynamics, rules and codes of conduct, increasing diversity in under-represented groups and disciplines, and organizing D&I events, and longterm efforts to champion change [15].

多元化和包容性 (D&I) 是培养创新思维的核心。现有理论表明，为了促进包容，必须克服多种类型的排斥动态，例如自我隔离、沟通恐惧、刻板印象和污名化 [11]。多元化的人群倾向于提出不同的观点，这有助于理解和解决 D&I。在研究社区中培养 D&I 必须解决与包容性人际关系和小组动态、规则和行为准则、增加代表性不足的群体和学科的多样性、组织 D&I 活动以及倡导变革的长期努力有关的问题 [15]。
