Duration: 1 hour
January 8, 2025 - 11:00-12:00pm (ET)
Featuring:

Learning Objectives:
- Define key terminologies such as race, ethnicity, and ethnoracial diversity and understand their implications for venous thromboembolism (VTE) research and outcomes.
- Explore the epidemiological data highlighting disparities in VTE incidence, treatment, and outcomes across different ethnoracial groups and why diversity in clinical trial matters.
- Incorporate strategies to enhance the representation of ethnoracial groups in clinical research, including specific recruitment strategies and community partnership frameworks, to ensure equitable participation.
A 15-minute Q&A will follow the presentation.
