Presented By: CEW+
Understanding and Addressing Racial Inequities in Lupus
CEW+Inspire Workshop Series
RSVP here: https://www.cew.umich.edu/events/cewinspire-workshop-series-understanding-and-addressing-racial-inequities-in-lupus
Facilitated by Kourtney Pony, MD/MBA Candidate, University of Michigan; Rachel Bergmans, MPH, PhD, Research Investigator, University of Michigan Department of Anesthesiology, Chronic Pain and Fatigue Research Center (CPFRC)
This workshop references work with the Community Advisory Board for Lupus Care and Research (Lupus CAB) as a starting point to discuss racial inequities in healthcare and lupus more specifically. The presentation will be co-led by Kourtney Pony (student lead for the Lupus CAB, 3rd-year medical student) and Dr. Rachel Bergmans (faculty co-leader for the CPFRC Health Equity Core). The workshop will be a mixture of a lecture and group discussion to highlight racial inequities in healthcare. Participants will be divided into groups to discuss a series of questions as each inequity is revealed and they will learn from data that address each response. The nuance this workshop aims to capture is that there is a history of mistreatment towards Black patients within medicine, and there are still present-day problems that we must address to reduce inequities in lupus care and research, as well as the healthcare system in general.
