The lack of racial representation in healthcare and biomedical research negatively affects patients of color. Over the past few years, we have been building relationships with historically underrepresented researchers and research institutions to advance meaningful change. This work introduced us to two recently established organizations\u2014led by and for people of color\u2014that are at the forefront of addressing disparities for researchers, clinicians and patients of color.<\/p>\n
