Explore the impact of population-based metrics for diversity on human genomics research and reference resources in this 36-minute webinar presented by Dr. Alice B. Popejoy, Assistant Professor at the University of California, Davis. Delve into the complex issues surrounding racial and ethnic classification in biomedical research, including the historical context of human categorization and its lasting effects on health disparities. Examine the challenges posed by current classification systems and the need for a more dynamic, inclusive model that accounts for social, cultural, geographic, and genomic populations. Gain insights into the intersections of computational genomics, human population genetics, clinical genetics, biomedical data science, and bioethics as Dr. Popejoy discusses her work addressing root causes of health disparities and enhancing equity in genomics research.
