Underrepresentation of minorities and vulnerable populations in clinical trials and the workforce continues. AGA has partnered with NIH to address these issues and share the pertinent emerging career development opportunities you need to know.
Clinical trials are crucial to testing the safety and effectiveness of promising treatments; however, we continue to see the limited enrollment of the populations most affected. In this symposium, leaders from the National Institutes of Health identify barriers that result in a lack of participation from minority and underserved groups and explore actionable opportunities to address them.
We also continue to see inadequate representation in the health and research workforce, underscoring the critical role mentoring plays in creating a diverse pipeline of researchers and clinicians addressing digestive disease. Drs. Webb Hooper and Lund share how COVID-19 has impacted professional development and share which opportunities, programs and grants are available during the pandemic and beyond.
