Explore Implicit Bias in Academia
Education researchers at University of Wisconsin created a video game called FairPlay to illustrate how implicit bias manifests itself in the world of biomedical research. Thanks to support from Fred Hutch Human Resources, I was able to attend a workshop hosted by the game creators at ABRCMS.

The game is available to download for free and can be played on Mac or Windows PCs.
