Why Representation Matters for the LGBTQ+ Community

There's a need for more research addressing social determinants of health in the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) community. Cass Condray, an IBD researcher who also lives with an IBD, points out the lack of information and resources focused on the unique experiences of LGBTQ patients. Cass also talks about the significance of representation in research, and the impact that intersecting identities have on people's health outcomes. Plus, we talk about Cass' web site, PrideAndPoop.com, what his hopes are for the future, and what there is to do in Oklahoma.
