It is no secret that there are racial—and gender—biases within the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. This is apparent through the types of treatments that are researched and developed as well as through the people and communities who have historically had access to and been included in clinical trials. There is, of course, other evidence of these biases in present times, such as diagnostic tools created for white individuals and patients with lighter skin (i.e., pulse oximeters). But in recent years, there has been a renewed push for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) and to better address racial inequity specifically.
