Phase 1 DEI objectives developed as a result of this work

Recognize where race as a sociopolitical construct influences disparities in disease incidence and outcomes

Identify health effects from exposure to racism, bigotry, or bias using current, recent, or historical examples that illustrate how breaches of equity and justice impaired health

Define the epidemiology of diseases that show disparities relating to marginalized, underserved, and minority patient identities and relate the risk, where appropriate, to structural inequity

Identify how diseases present differently in patients from different backgrounds and how elements of patient identity can negatively relate to health outcomes

Discuss marginalized patient populations and their backgrounds in a dignified manner

Identify examples of inadequate healthcare resources that predominantly affect patients from low- and middle-income countries, non-Western locations and discuss their conditions, while focusing on the patient as a person worthy of respect and empathy
