Abstract

Health care disparities may originate in clinical trials when particular members of the population (lower socioeconomic status, race, or gender) are not adequately represented for a specific drug, device, or procedure. In 2022, Abbott provided a $1.5 million Diversity in Clinical Trials Initiative grant to the Institute for Health Equity at Norton Healthcare to encourage diversity in research. The Norton Healthcare Advancing Research through Inclusivity, Sustainability, and Equity (ARISE) Medical Research Internship Program was founded at Norton to foster and maintain a diverse and well-rounded research staff by building referral networks, providing internship opportunities, and empowering individuals. Through innovative strategies established at Norton Healthcare to promote and encourage diversity in research, the goal is to effectively serve and engage the communities from which participants are recruited from.
