In the “1000 Cut Journey” virtual reality experience, the user becomes Mike Sterling, a black man, and experiences racism at various points of his life.
Dr. Cogburn’s transdisciplinary work focuses on how to characterize and measure racism and its effects on health.
During the podcast, she talks about the intersection of racism, population health, and emerging technologies and how to make a difference. She also discusses how the current social movements have validated the work she has been doing and are as critical as ever.
