About the Equity in Biomedicine Seminar Series (EBM)

The Equity in Biomedicine Seminar Series (EBM) is an institute-wide interactive meeting that focuses on critical issues related to equity and representation in biomedical research, especially as it applies to genomics research and precision medicine. Speakers dive into the equal or unequal social implications of their work: Who is affected? How are they affected? Why? The overall goal of this series is to foster discussions about equity and inspire Ó³»­´«Ã½ scientists and trainees to reflect on the social impact of their own research.

The EBM series is now sponsored by the Ó³»­´«Ã½ IDEA Office.
