No Longer an Anomaly: Neurology Educators Lean in to Addressing Health Disparities
The report discusses how neurology educators are starting to address health disparities in their curriculum. Traditionally, medical education has not focused on disparities in healthcare access and outcomes, leading to a lack of understanding and awareness among medical professionals. However, a growing number of neurology programs are taking steps to address this issue, such as implementing training on cultural competency and including case studies that highlight disparities in healthcare. This increased focus on addressing health disparities in neurology education has the potential to improve outcomes for marginalized communities.
