Brown University Panel: (Anti) Ableist Research in Public Health and Medicine

Join us for an interdisciplinary conversation between public health experts, disability activists, and scholars as they explore how ableism shapes the terrains of public health and medical research. Disability activist Eli Clare, founder and director of the Johns Hopkins Disability Health Research Center Bonnielin Swenor, director of Research at the Preparedness and Treatment Equity Coalition (PTEC) Cyrena Gawuga, and I will discuss which institutional barriers are obstructing disability equity, how disability interacts with race and gender, and why it’s time to adopt an anti-ableist research approach.

Registration is free and open to all.
