Studies by sociologist Elaine Howard Ecklund indicate that religious scientists often refrain from discussing their faith at work, potentially hindering diversity in the scientific community. This is particularly concerning as women and people of color are more likely to be religious, suggesting that the exclusion of religious individuals could limit diversity in science.
The article highlights the importance of embracing religious diversity in science to foster inclusivity. By recognizing and valuing the religious beliefs of scientists, particularly those from underrepresented groups, the field can enhance diversity and provide a more welcoming environment for all individuals.
