Medical School Pathology: Health Disparities

I lecture WIDELY on health disparities and race-based medicine. Why this additional video on health disparities in the Key Concepts series?!?
This material is intended for medical students and faculty and accompanies the new section on health disparities in Robbins & Kumar Basic Pathology 11th edition. Although any group can experience health disparities, this video focuses on health disparities between socially defined races.
I discuss terminology and the intrinsic and extrinsic causes of health disparities between socially defined races. There is also a bit of evolutionary biology to provide a foundation for understanding why biological race does not exist and why a focus on biological aspects of race in medicine should be abandoned.

Cogent, clear, well reasoned, with supporting data. Should on the must-share list. I will watch this again. And don't forget, everyone is a minority of some kind.

Thank you! I really tried to align this with Robbins & Kumar Basic Pathology to help pathology faculty develop comfort/familiarity with the material!
