The Black Biomechanists Association: a movement for diversity and representation in SEM. Ep #473

Dela

The Black Biomechanists Association (BBA) was recently cofounded by Associate Professor Matthew McCullough from North Carolina A&T State University, Kayla Seymore, PhD student at the University of Delaware, and Dr. Erica Bell, Postdoctoral fellow at the Mayo Clinic. In this episode, Dr. Erin Macri inquires about the need for organizations like this in our global scientific communities, and learns more about how the BBA is positioned to lead the charge in changing how we think about diversity, representation and anti-racism in biomechanics research.
