Overview 

Join the Modern MedEd hosts as they explore the topic of DEI in medical education. Dr. Fei Cai reviews key excerpts from her interview with special guest Dr. Arthurine Zakama. What does DEI mean for patients, learners, faculty, and staff? How do efforts to promote DEI impact learners and faculty in medicine who identify as underrepresented minorities (URM)? And, what resources can help to promote a better understanding of DEI and ultimately improve the experiences for URM students and learners in our academic medical learning environments?
