The NIH recognition of people with disabilities as a disparity population is overdue and necessary. I'm grateful to the advocates at every level who fought for this. nih.gov/news-events/news-rel…

NIH designates people with disabilities as a population with health disparities

Designation, new research program and update to NIH mission are actions to ensure inclusion of people with disabilities.
