Unconscious Bias in Medicine

This CME activity provides education on unconscious bias in the academic medicine workplace for Stanford Medicine. Existing research on unconscious bias will provide a science-based view of this seemingly non-science topic. Case studies with examples of unconscious bias, self-assessment opportunities, and exploring bias busting strategies will enable learners to understand how to bring the content into their own unique environments.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, learners should be able to:

  1. Describe the effects of unconscious bias in everyday interactions with patients, students, colleagues, and team members.
  2. Apply specific “bias-busting” techniques that can be used in the medical and academic environment.
  3. Identify where personal unconscious biases may reside across gender, race/ethnicity, and/or cultural attributes in the workplace.
  4. Develop strategies to correct personal unconscious biases in daily interactions.
