According to our speaker, 13 groups of Americans still experience notable health disparities when compared to the general population. Some contributing factors, such as biology and access to care, have been well documented, but the effect of physician bias on health disparities has yet to be fully explored. Dr. White will share the extensive research and interviews he conducted with doctors around the country to explore whether subconscious stereotyping of patients influences treatment. His presentation will examine how physician bias impacts health disparities, and suggest specific ways to reduce that impact. Dr. Augustus A. White, III, is author of "Seeing Patients: Unconscious Bias in Health Care," with David Chanoff. The first African American graduate of the Stanford University School of Medicine, Dr. White is an internationally recognized spine specialist and one of the preeminent orthopedic surgeons in the world. White grew up in Memphis, Tennessee during the era of segregation. He attended the Mt. Hermon School for Boys in northeastern Massachusetts, where he and four other boys {\textquotedblleft}of color{\textquotedblright} were accepted in 1949. From there White attended Brown University, where he was the first black president of his traditionally white fraternity. He trained at Yale Medical Center becoming the first black surgical resident and, later, Yale{\textquoteright}s first African American professor of surgery.}, keywords = {health disparities}, url = {http://videocast.nih.gov/summary.asp?live=10685}, author = {Augustus A White} } @inbook {4193, title = {Women Pioneers of Medical Research: Biographies of 25 Outstanding Scientists}, booktitle = {Women Pioneer in Medical Research }, year = {2010}, chapter = {21- Jane C Wright: Pioneer of Cancer Chemotherapy}, author = {King-Thom Chung} } @book {3941, title = {Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole in Many Lands}, year = {2010}, publisher = {pubOne.Info}, organization = {pubOne.Info}, isbn = {9782819902720}, url = {http://books.google.com/books?id=9S30dFmuC\_kC}, author = {Seacole, M.} } @book {2028, title = {Women, Ethics, and Inequality in U.S. Healthcare: "to Count Among the Living"}, series = {Black religion, womanist thought, social justice}, year = {2006}, pages = {272}, publisher = {Palgrave Macmillan}, organization = {Palgrave Macmillan}, edition = {1st ed}, address = {New York}, isbn = {9781403973061}, author = {Aana Marie Vigen} } @book {2486, title = {Water, Race, and Disease}, series = {NBER series on long-term factors in economic development}, year = {2004}, pages = {251}, publisher = {MIT Press}, organization = {MIT Press}, address = {Cambridge, Mass}, isbn = {9780262201483}, author = {Werner Troesken} } @book {2485, title = {Whose Body?
