Session Description
Invisibility has been a core part of the lived experience of many Asian and Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) people and healthcare providers training and working in the US. This talk intends to unmask the invisible histories and experiences of Asian American people, describe the breadth of inequities in clinical outcomes for AAPI patients and provide examples of how to promote cultural concordance in clinical work, DEI initiatives and advocacy work.
