The Breaking the Bias Habit®: Bias Reduction in Medicine (BRIM) Workshop
January 18, 2022, 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM Eastern
January 20, 2022, 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern
January 27, 2022, 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern
 
The BRIM workshop uses research examples relevant to faculty in academic medicine to illustrate how cultural stereotypes about diverse groups of people create unwanted cognitive habits that lead to unintended (“implicit”) errors in perception, judgment, and decision-making. The workshop then provides tools to help participants break these unwanted habits: first, by providing a vocabulary to help participants diagnose common manifestations of bias (bias literacy), and then by offering specific evidence-based strategies participants can practice to help them overcome the unintended influence of cultural stereotypes. Molly Carnes, MD (ELAM '07) co-presents the workshop with Jennifer Sheridan, PhD.

The workshop fee is $300 per registrant. To register for one of these sessions click here: https://wiseli.wisc.edu/workshops/brim
