'What does anti-racist science look like?' Whew these questions y'all #neuroracism #BlackInNeuroWeek

MMMM Jordan Harrod really pointed out the thing about the NSF GRFP prioritizing AI/Tech by saying that tho they could fund URM students they historically dont do that but rather R1s who already focus on AI/Tech. So NSF will cont. funding R1s & not URMs/PoC #NeuroRacism

This is *current* medical students! Meaning one in ten of your future doctors (at least) might think this harmful, racist idea is real and true. #NeuroRacism and #MedicalRacism is very real and remediating this should be top priority!!!

What do you think drives people's desires to look for neurobiological mechanism for racism?

Oliver Rollins says this is rooted in a desire to have answers and understand. But there's a profound misunderstanding of how systemic inequality is produced.

Scrolling mindlessly? Missing deadlines? Avoiding resolving conflicts?

Happens to everyone, but these could also be signs of chronic procrastination.

The good news is that there are science-based techniques to get rid of this life-ruining habit. Start with a simple test.👇

in case anyone was curious what my #BlackInNeuroWeek #NeuroRacism look of the day has been...

🧠 earrings: Two Photon Art
✊🏽 shirt: Studio BE in NOLA

10-20% Medical students believe Black patients have thicker skin and less sensitive nerve endings. Med schools have to teach and re-teach the racialized programming that students have been exposed to.

The #NeuroRacism discussion was one that was much needed and long overdue. So much wisdom from the panelists and so much to think about!

It's late, but it took a bit to write this out. Today for #BlackInNeuroWeek we're focusing on #NeuroRacism and ways our work has been #NeuroComplicit in perpetuating racism. And I've got a bone to pick with #Addiction research regarding the #OpioidCrisis . A brief thread

Most people who are diagnosed with CIDP aren’t 17-year-old girls, but Maddy was. She shares her journey with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), a rare and chronic neurological disorder that primarily affects the arms and legs.

Great insights from #Neuroracism panel. Learning from Jordan Harrod on racism & AI - how can algorithms take race into account in meaningful ways without perpetuating racism? what is the definition of fair in the context of artificial intelligence? how do algorithms shift power?

#BlackInNeuroWeek . In the movement!

I'm kyerewaa. Empowering girls to appreciate Science and engaging communities on the conditions around autism in efforts to reduce stigma and myths has been part of my work with scientists WACCBIP.

I think ppl would rather put blame on something out of everyone's ctrl for either the harm or privilege of racism rather than actually deal w/ the consequences of it being a made up system within the ctrl of some #NeuroRacism

Love this discussion about how code switching has differential effects in children's brain. I wonder how achievement gaps could be closed for Black children if educators embraced AAVE. If we didn't measure intelligence by white standards.
