"While the existence of health disparities is well-documented, many studies fall short in their analysis, merely describing disadvantaged groups' health outcomes without digging deeper." Read the BGS blog by Mary Scott about her Age_and_Ageing paper. bgs.org.uk/blog/unveiling…

"Equity can only be achieved when we move beyond merely acknowledging poor outcomes to understanding the mechanisms that create and perpetuate disparities." bgs.org.uk/blog/unveiling…

"By embracing more inclusive methodologies and centring the experiences of marginalised communities, we can pave the way for a future where health disparities are a thing of the past. Let's not just talk about equity – let's make it a reality." bgs.org.uk/blog/unveiling…

"Our review builds on the work of scholars who argue research should consider the multiple layers of inequity in how we produce knowledge." Read Mary Scott's Age_and_Ageing paper via @OUPMedicine Oxford Academic Oxford Journals doi.org/10.1093/ageing…
