Hi, everyone. This is Sud Krishna-Muthi. Welcome back to another episode of the Anti-Racism and Medicine series of the Clinical Problem Solvers podcast. As always, our goal on this podcast is to equip our

listeners at all levels of training with the consciousness and tools to practice anti-racism

in their health professions careers. This will be our third ever live in-person episode and fourth

year in a row at the Society of General Internal Medicine

Conference, and this session has become something quite special to us. This year's episode is

focused on the importance of qualitative research and the role it plays in anti-racism work,

community-based work, and scholarship.

Today, to talk about this with us, we have two incredible guests.

I'm going to go ahead and introduce our first guest and let Ashley introduce our second guest.

Baltimore, Maryland.

And her research is focused on racial disparities in maternal health outcomes among African-American women.

With all of this, of course, Michelle is a longtime friend and comrade of the podcast.
