This report introduces such evidence, toward enabling the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to develop the wisest investments in STEM graduate education. We present findings from a systematic review of 228 recently published research manuscripts and evaluation reports about efforts to advance diversity, equity, and/or inclusion by race, gender, and other social identities in STEM graduate education. We reviewed abstracts of more than 500 total publications and reviewed the entirety of papers whose abstracts, titles, and/or keywords addressed at least three of the five categories: Graduate education, STEM, Race, Gender, and Baccalaureate origins. Of the 228 works reviewed, eight addressed all five; 36 addressed four of five; and 132 addressed three of five categories.
