ARMI embraces and celebrates diversity amongst our people because we know unique perspectives and lived experiences enrich our culture and ensure we have the best ideas as we discover, develop and translate highly specialised regenerative medicines and advanced therapies.

ARMI’s staff and students come from over 20 countries of 30 different nationalities. 

To promote a learning and working environment where everyone feels welcome, valued and respected, ARMI’s Diversity & Inclusion leadership portfolio was established in 2019. ARMI’s staff and students have individual journeys, coming from different places and with diverse cultural backgrounds. An inclusive environment is crucial for ARMI’s scientific excellence, stimulating critical thinking and increasing the ability to innovate together. ARMI actively works to offer a safe and welcoming environment, open dialogue on understanding and awareness, and ensure that all of our staff and students are heard and can influence policy, practice, and decision-making. 

By providing resources, tools and information, we aim to create a diverse, inclusive and equitable working place for people of all genders, cultures, ages, ethnicity, religion, disability, sexual orientation, education and national origin. We celebrate each individual and support the diversity of our institute to unleash everyone’s talent.

We welcome you.
