• Resumen

  • In this article the author discusses the impact of bias toward African American biomedical researchers and individuals whose ideas are unconventional by officials at the U.S. National Institutes of Health. He notes a studied published in "Science" that found research proposals from African Americans received less funding that proposals from white applicants and argues that NIH's review process is structured to promote bias.
