“Race-based medicine is a racist invented political category designed to justify deep, atrocious racial inequities” - Dorothy Roberts Beyond beyond grateful to hear Dorothy Roberts's powerful talk this morning on the problem with “race-based” medicine at #NSGC21 #GCChat

Thrilled to have received this award from the @NSGC_SNMSIG for my thesis project exploring the needs and experiences of those with mitochondrial diseases along the diagnostic journey. Thank you!

Racism in medicine is so perverse that scientists will exploit Black people’s bodies for therapies to benefit white people yet at the same time claim Black people’s bodies are so peculiar that diagnoses & therapies must be “corrected” for race. #FatalInvention #HenriettaLacks

The SOGC is aware of social media misinformation of increased stillbirth rates and the implication that this is related to vaccination. Following careful review of Canadian data, there is no evidence of increased stillbirth rates as suggested. 1/3

Devastated to hear about Dr. Paul Farmer’s passing. I vividly remember when a friend recommended Mountains Beyond Mountains to me in 2015. This changed my entire professional trajectory. Dr. Farmer ignited my passion for health justice.
