In a recent proposal, our team planned an approach to change the culture of bias. Shifting focus from patients to providers. Perhaps to truly be transformative, we have to change the system's lens.

2⃣ Yet, over and over minority communities, particularly #Black people are labeled as less knowledgable, intelligent, compliant, etc etc and NOT offered access to #clinicaltrials #AACRdisp21 by @sniranjanPhD

Our latest research! It is imperative that we identify the genetic risk alleles that are common in all populations. Justice in breast cancer prevention is more than access to screening, but also that screening tools are accurate for all women, regardless of race/ancestry.
