NIMHD Anniversary Symposium
Happy 10th anniversary to NIH’s National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD). To mark the occasion, the NIMHD held an informative anniversary scientific symposium on March 3, 2020 at NIH that focused on “Innovations to Promote the Health Equity Agenda.” It was my pleasure to take part in the opening session, where I had a chance to pose for this photo with my colleague and NIMHD Director Eliseo Pérez-Stable. Over the past 30 years, NIMHD and its predecessors, along with their partners and collaborators, have proven that health disparities are real. Everyone deserves to live a healthy life, and health disparities challenge our American sense of fairness. Within the next 30 years, a majority of our nation’s population is projected to be non-white. With this coming demographic shift, it’s more important now than ever for researchers to study minority health and health disparities to understand the health of all people. Credit: NIH.
