Addressing Racial Bias in Pediatric Medicine with Drs. Nia Heard-Garris and Monique Jindal

NIH Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) programs connect investigators with communities as well as with each other, providing opportunities for investigators from different institutions to work together. Proof of such collaboration is the relationship between NUCATS Institute member Nia Heard-Garris, MD, MBA, MSc, and Monique Jindal, MD, MPH, a member of the University of Illinois Chicago School of Medicine's Center for Clinical and Translational Science. In this episode, they discuss their recent study on racial disparities in pediatric medicine, the challenges of researching social determinants of health, and the impact of relationships that go beyond institutional walls.
