Looks like @acs.org is wrecking its DEI style guide. A month ago you could find guidelines for writing about gender or about race. Now those and other sections are gone, replaced with "page undergoing upgrade." As far as I know, ACS is doing this by choice. #chemsky

A collection of pieces highlighting an all-too-often overlooked aspect of DEI in chemistry: disability. The articles are grouped into four themes related to breaking down barriers (i) in the scientific community, (ii) in the lab, (iii) to studying and (iv) at conferences.
