Webinar: Making Clinical Research Gender Inclusive

You are invited to join the New York City Chapter of IACRN for an educational webinar

Making Clinical Research Gender Inclusive

Tuesday, September 14, 2021

5:00 - 6:00 PM ET

Nearly 2 million people in the United States identify as transgender and there is limited information about how transgender people have been represented in research. There are many studies documenting that transgender health needs are not adequately addressed and education for medical providers and staff about transgender health and cultural competencies is necessary and lacking.  This webinar will present to clinical research nurses an introduction to the transgender community, and important information and strategies for the inclusion of transgender individuals in clinical research.  In addition, there will be an opportunity for questions with staff from the Gender Multi-specialty Service at Boston Children's Hospital and with clinical research nurses from Massachusetts General Hospital.
