Description

Intersectionality in Research: How to be a champion for inclusive research design and implementation.
Competence in the field of equity, diversity and inclusion is a must have for all aspiring researchers and clinicians. Come and learn what intersectionality is and how you can apply it to research so that it is more inclusive, representative and applicable to all people. Bias in leads to bias out in research like everything else so it is important to understand how to conceptually and practically minimize this in research and clinical practice.
