RED 660 | Cultural Awareness in Research Participation - 4/21/2025

This is a REd Best Practice Network (live) class.

LIVE SESSION: Monday, April 21, 2025 @11:00am - 12:00pm Mountain Time (US and Canada), Zoom.

Class Description: Recognizing and understanding how our own biases impact research recruitment efforts helps to identify ways to reduce health care disparities for our community.  

What is health for people of all backgrounds and how does that impact research as a whole?  Where can resources be accessed to enhance study participation?  How can we build a bridge to the community our research targets?  

This discussion will describe what it means to be culturally and linguistically appropriate and how we can find ways to address health care disparities through our work in research.
