Many people have no idea how these things work.
For example, right now, as a Brazilian, I can't accept invitations to speak at conferences in Europe because my visa to work in the U.S. has expired.
I am not illegal; I have a work contract with the University of California until 2027. Still, I must travel outside the U.S. and get a visa stamp on my passport to allow me to move freely to talk about science.
I have to do this every single year I stay in the U.S. The costs of the visa, traveling, time lost, etc, are all on me. Not every international scientist can handle this.
Wonderful to see this thought provoking work led by @HassalLee and @JanowitzTobias in press finally. This study tackles a key challenge of our time - how can we diversify clinical trial? Worth a look for sure. #HealthEquity
Minoritised communities are underrepresented in UK research โ particularly those of Black, Bangladeshi or Pakistani heritage.
We've launched new funding to help address this โคต๏ธ [1/3]
