Intersectionality | Michigan Medicine

The factors that drive discrimination and disadvantage are more complex than we realize—and they are often overlapping and interdependent.That’s where intersectionality comes in. What is it, and how does it relate to underrepresented and marginalized groups advancing in surgery specifically and medicine generally? We cap off the Michigan Women’s Surgical Collaborative mini-series with a robust and frank discussion about the role of intersectionality in making medicine a more diverse, equitable and inclusive place.

Featured speakers include:

• Erika Newman, M.D.
• Gurjit Sandhu, Ph.D.
• Oluwaferanmi Okanlami, M.D., M.S.
