SUMMARY:Empowering trust: Insights from Community Engagement Initiatives
DESCRIPTION:Carolina Seminar Series theme: Science meets society at the intersection between precision medicine and justice\, equity\, and inclusion\nSeminar title: Empowering trust: Insights from Community Engagement Initiatives\nVirtual Event \nWednesday November 8th\, 2023\, 4:00pm-5:15pm \nRegister here: go.unc.edu/EmpoweringTrust \nEvent Details:\nSpeaker: Mya Roberson\, MSPH\, PhD\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Health Policy and Management\, UNC-Chapel Hill \nPanelists: Laura Crandon\, Patient Advocate\, Founder\, Touch4Life \n                  Langston Harrison\, Immunization Equity Health Educator\, NC Department of Health and Human Services \n                  Julianne O’Daniel\, Associate Professor\, Department of Genetics\, UNC-Chapel Hill \n                  Erin Song\, Member\, Age-Based Genomic Screening Community Research Board \nCommunity engagement continues to be a critical component in genomic medicine and precision health research where the overall goal is to improve health outcomes of communities. The translation of findings into practice and implementation depends heavily on stakeholder engagement throughout the research process. In this seminar session\, we will explore insights gained from various engagement strategies and how appropriate incorporation of community stakeholders’ insights can improve the relevance and usefulness of genomic medicine and precision health research. Speakers and panelists will share their perspectives on community engagement\, discuss strategies to address the gaps that remain\, and how to address the challenge of hesitancy among some communities. \n

SUMMARY:Precision Medicine Research and Novel Clinical Offerings: Ensuring Equitable Impact Through Implementation Science
DESCRIPTION:Carolina Seminar Series theme: Science meets society at the intersection between precision medicine and justice\, equity\, and inclusion\nSeminar title: Precision Medicine Research and Novel Clinical Offerings: Ensuring Equitable Impact Through Implementation Science\nVirtual Event \nWednesday December 6th\, 2023\, 4:00pm-5:15pm \nRegister here \nEvent Details:\nSpeakers: Caitlin Allen\, PhD\, MPH\n                   Assistant Professor\, Medical University of South Carolina \n                   Elizabeth Mayer-Davis\, PhD\, RD\n                   Boshamer Distinguished Professor of Nutrition and Medicine\, UNC-Chapel Hill \nAs technologies and health interventions expand at a rapid rate in healthcare\, many providers and patients desire quick and efficient incorporation of these new offerings in to practice. The field of implementation science can be critical in studying the barriers and facilitators to bring options previously available only in the research realm to the clinic. The design and development of health interventions are increasingly informed by implementation science theories\, models\, and frameworks to emphasize diverse reach and improve adoption and increase health equity in underserved and marginalized communities. By testing new clinical offerings with implementation science methodologies\, we can improve the quality of health practices for all patients while promoting equity and inclusion and ensuring that the availability of novel clinical offerings does not exacerbate existing health disparities.

SUMMARY:Ensuring Fairness: At the Crossroads of Equity and Economic Considerations in Precision Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Carolina Seminar Series theme: Science meets society at the intersection between precision medicine and justice\, equity\, and inclusion\nSeminar title: Ensuring Fairness: At the Crossroads of Equity and Economic Considerations in Precision Medicine\nVirtual Event \nTuesday March 26th\, 2024\, 12:00pm-1:15pm \nRegister here \nEvent Details:\nFeatured Speaker: Kate Saylor\, PhD\n                                  Fellow\, Ethical\, Legal\, and Social Implications of Genetics and Genomics\n                                  Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania\n                   \nEfforts to expand access to genomic health and precision medicine have resulted in a proliferation of screening programs for healthy adult populations across the nation. Issues of fairness and equity abound in medicine and are a critical component of assessing implementation of these genomic health and precision medicine efforts. But how can programs such as genomic screening ensure equitable access within a healthcare system that is already characterized by massive health disparities and barriers to equitable access? When and how should cost-effectiveness be considered when designing screening programs and their offerings? How can cost-effectiveness models incorporate justice\, equity and inclusion? In this seminar session\, we will explore these questions and the overall relationship between equity and economic considerations in precision medicine.

SUMMARY:Unlocking Equity: Disability Inclusion in Precision Medicine Research
DESCRIPTION:Carolina Seminar Series theme: Science meets society at the intersection between precision medicine and justice\, equity\, and inclusion\nSeminar title: Unlocking Equity: Disability Inclusion in Precision Medicine Research\nVirtual Event \nFriday May 10th\, 2024\, 12:00pm-1:15pm \nRegister here \nEvent Details:\nFeatured Speakers: Megan Morris\, PhD\, MPH\n                                       Associate Professor\, University of Colorado\, Anschutz\n                                       Founder/ Director\, Disability Equity Collaborative \n                                   Kara Ayers\, PhD\n                                       Associate Director\, University of Cincinnati University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities \n                                       (UC UCEDD) \nDespite comprising about 27% of the US population\, the disability community has remained largely absent from diversity\, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts in precision medicine and genomics research. Research suggests that individuals with disabilities are willing to participate in precision medicine research\, yet this group continues to be underrepresented. Reasons for this absence range from inaccessible research protocols (i.e. overly narrow inclusion and exclusion criteria) to the perception that it is too burdensome to recruit or accommodate disabled participants. Research can also be subject to ableism\, which discourages marginalized communities from potential research partnerships. If not designed and communicated in ways that respect the complexity and diversity of human genetic variation\, identities\, and experiences\, research risks reifying prejudices that marginalize those it hopes to benefit. This seminar will explore insights into various aspects of disability inclusion within precision medicine and genomics research with a lens on equity\, accessibility\, participation\, and justice.
