In 2023, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened an expert committee to assess the current use of racial and ethnic categories in biomedical research, review existing guidance for researchers, and provide new guidance for future use. The resulting 2024 report, Rethinking Race and Ethnicity in Biomedical Research, outlines nine actionable recommendations and associated resources for advancing the responsible use of race and ethnicity.&nbsp;The recommendations address how to:<ul><li>Decide whether to use race and ethnicity in different research contexts&nbsp;</li><li>Characterize and disclose limitations of datasets that include racial and ethnic information</li><li>Identify factors to investigate instead of or alongside race and ethnicity</li><li>Include overlooked populations in analysis</li><li>Support sustained community engagement</li></ul>Access the report and supporting materials, including an interactive resource, action guides for research funders and journals, educational one pagers, and FAQs on the <a href="https://www.nationalacademies.org/our-work/the-use-of-race-and-ethnicity-in-biomedical-research" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">project webpage</a>.

Goal #4: Improve clinical research

Unplanned life events sidelined University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) researcher Chenghui Li, Ph.D., for two years, but since returning in 2020 she has authored or co-authored 33 published papers, thanks largely to a National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) re-entry grant.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The NCATS re-entry grants, also known as the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program Diversity, Re-training, Re-integration, and Re-entry Supplement, support researchers trying to resume their careers after time away. Dr. Li received the two-year $221,000 grant to support her research into if and why many breast cancer patients in Arkansas are not receiving or adhering to a potentially life-saving hormone treatment known as endocrine therapy.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Read the full article <a href="https://tri.uams.edu/news/uams-chenghui-li-ph-d-publishes-33-papers-after-ncats-re-entry-grant/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.
