Microaggressions in Medicine
Join a discussion on how medical school staff prepare students in graduate education medical programs to think about the ways implicit bias and microaggressions show up in the medical field. Learn how graduate programs prepare students to engage in dialogue about implicit bias as they prepare to serve infants, children, and adults through medicine. Case studies and small group breakouts will be deployed for engaging conversations. Attendees will discuss the differences between intent and impact and discuss how to move beyond recognizing microaggressions and the messages they send to interrupting these statements.
Facilitators:
