Adequate representation of diverse populations in research is a moral imperative as a matter of social justice, scientific integrity, and engendering public trust. There has been a recent push in the United States to increase the representation of minorities in clinical trials and social science research. This panel will gauge how we are doing, what challenges must still be addressed, and what strategies researchers can take to ensure study populations reflect real world demographics.
Featuring Panelists:
- Martin Mendoza, PhD (Director for the Division of Policy and Data, Office of Minority Health at the US Department of Health and Human Services)
- Arati Maleku, MSW, PhD (Assistant Professor, College of Social Work, OSU)
- Deena Chisolm, PhD (Director of the Center for Child Health Equity and Outcomes Research at the Abigail Wexner Research Institute, Nationwide Children's Hospital, and Associate Professor of Pediatrics, College of Medicine and Public Health, OSU)
