How can equity and justice be promoted in epidemiological research?
Promoting equity and justice in epidemiological research involves ensuring that diverse populations are included in studies and that the benefits of research are distributed fairly. Researchers should strive to avoid selection bias and ensure that underrepresented or marginalized groups are given the opportunity to participate in research. Additionally, the outcomes of research should be used to address health disparities and improve health outcomes for all segments of the population, particularly those who are most vulnerable.
