We Need More Illustrations of People of Color in Medical Textbooks— The lack of diversity perpetuates health inequality and stereotypes "The consequences of primarily depicting White, lighter skinned individuals with Eurocentric features in medical images supports the persuasive concept of White supremacy. It perpetuates the belief that the White male body is "the standard" to which all other bodies should be compared. It leads to inequality in medical education and further perpetuates harmful stereotypes of Black individuals. As a result, this issue plays a role in inappropriate diagnosis and health management of Black individuals. Furthermore, medical care becomes subjective, discriminatory, and filled with speculatory assumptions based on stereotypes." Jenna C. Lester is founder of the Skin of Color dermatology program at UCSF, which addresses the  persistent issues that arise from the exclusion and marginalization of non-white patients in medical  research and practice. She is combatting medical disparities due to racial inequality, working to fill education gaps in textbooks and curriculum about non-white skin and training a new generation of  doctors. A graduate of Harvard University and The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, she is an assistant professor of dermatology at UCSF where she practices and teaches general dermatology. Jenna's TedX Talk Susan Y. Chon, a 1991 Brown graduate with an independent concentration in children's literature, is a professor in the Department of Dermatology at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Prior to joining the faculty, she earned her M.D. from Stanford University School of Medicine. She then completed her internship in internal medicine and her dermatology residency at Stanford University Hospital. Chon specializes in treating patients with skin cancers, melanomas and skin disorders from cancer treatments. She is a medical educator and an active mentor for medical students and dermatology residents. She is also director of the Skin Cancer Screening and Prevention Program and founded the volunteer physician program for the Brookwood Community, a residential and vocational program for adults with disabilities. Chon is the president of the Brown Club of Houston, helping to maintain the connection between Brown and its graduates throughout the world, and serves as a member of the Women's Leadership Council, Women's Launch Pad and Philanthropy Advisory Group.

Skin is one of the most powerful predictors of health, yet nearly half of all new dermatologists admit to feeling uncomfortable identifying health issues on darker skin tones -- resulting in poorer health outcomes for patients of color. In this crucial talk, TED Fellow and dermatologist Jenna C. Lester shares her effort to extend medical training beyond its current limited scope and ensure all medical students get trained in the full spectrum of diseases as they appear in all patients, regardless of skin tone.

La piel es uno de los indicadores más potentes de la salud y, sin embargo, casi la mitad de los nuevos dermatólogos admiten sentirse incómodos al identificar problemas de salud en los tonos de piel más oscuros, lo que se traduce en peores resultados de salud para los pacientes de color. En esta charla crucial, la dermatóloga y miembro de TED Jenna C. Lester comparte su esfuerzo por ampliar la formación médica más allá de su limitado alcance actual y garantizar que todos los estudiantes de medicina reciban formación sobre todo el espectro de enfermedades que aparecen en todos los pacientes, independientemente del tono de la piel.

La peau est l'un des indicateurs les plus puissants de la santé. Pourtant, près de la moitié des nouveaux dermatologues admettent ne pas se sentir à l'aise pour identifier les problèmes de santé sur les peaux plus foncées, ce qui se traduit par de moins bons résultats pour les patients de couleur. Dans cet exposé crucial, la dermatologue Jenna C. Lester partage ses efforts pour étendre la formation médicale au-delà de son champ d'application limité actuel et faire en sorte que tous les étudiants en médecine soient formés au spectre complet des maladies telles qu'elles apparaissent chez tous les patients, quelle que soit leur couleur de peau.
