Description
ASHG’s published Guidance, “Addressing Underrepresentation in Genomics Research through Community Engagement” lays out recommendations to help scientists understand and responsibly engage underrepresented communities in research studies. The speakers will discuss these recommendations, the evidence and rationale that supports them, and provide practical tips for researchers who want to establish collaborative research partnerships with communities. This webinar will highlight researchers successfully implementing these guidelines in their own projects.
