When discussing diversity, equity, and inclusion in clinical research, the Deaf community continues to be an underrepresented group. This is due to a massive divide between the Deaf community and the medical world--in terms of barriers to communication, accomodation, trial recruitment, and advocacy, just for starters. In this session, a Deaf clinical research coordinator and their hearing employer will challenge the audience to improve how the research enterprise interacts with the Deaf community, both as study participants and as clinical trial team members.
