In the realm of clinical research, there is a chorus of voices speaking about inclusion and diversity, particularly when it comes to the vital role of Black women in this field. However, I stand before you today, knowing that my journey carries a unique weight that few can truly comprehend. In 2013, when I embarked on the path of opening my own research clinic, there was a profound absence of faces that resembled mine. I took an audacious leap of faith, guided by nothing but my unwavering determination, and I ventured forth with scarce mentorship.

As the first Black woman to own and operate a clinical research site in the state of South Carolina, and one of the very few in the nation, I have firsthand experience of the trials and tribulations that come with navigating the complex world of clinical research as a Black woman. It is undeniable that there is an urgent need for tangible action and unwavering support. We must pave the way for better business development opportunities, provide the necessary capital, and forge meaningful partnerships that do more than just empower-- they should stand as pillars of support for African American women who are truly dedicated to the cause of clinical research.

Gaining a seat at the table requires more than being given a platform for empowerment. In our clinic, 78% of our patient population belongs to the BIPOC community. We've tirelessly undertaken a Cancer Screening study, enrolling 219 patients, with a remarkable 66% of them being African American.

Diversity in research is not meant to be a passing hashtag or a fleeting buzzword. It must manifest as tangible results that drive the diversification of medicine and treatments to benefit all individuals. We are committed to a cause that extends beyond rhetoric; we are dedicated to pioneering change that transforms the landscape of clinical research for the better.

These are the faces of hard work, determination, and commitment.

During a recent NASH Study Screening, our dedicated staff encountered a homeless patient who couldn't read or write. While we were initially prepared to read to him, a pre-screening revealed an active Hepatitis C infection, unfortunately excluding him from study participation.

Kristen and Cassie, our shining examples of compassion, ensured that we promptly reviewed our SOP for Illiterate Subjects, ensuring that our policies did not discriminate against individuals who cannot read or write. In doing so, they upheld our commitment to equal access to medical research for everyone.

After discovering that the patient could not participate, they went above and beyond, by providing him with a Hygiene kit from our Hygiene Bank and a stipend supported by our non-profit Foundation InvoCARES. These gestures ensured immediate support and demonstrated our unwavering commitment to patient well-being.

At Biocentric, we are committed to making a positive impact on both the world of medical research and the lives of those we serve. Our mission goes beyond data collection— it's about making a difference in the lives of people, no matter the challenges they face.

We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Kristen, Cassie, and our entire team for their incredible dedication to kindness and compassion. We are committed to upholding these values in everything we do.

As the Chief Clinical Officer I am responsible for business development, marketing, and Human Resources— however my passion for patient care always lead me back to the exam room. This week I have been serving as the Front Desk/Medical Administrative Assistant and thoroughly enjoyed greeting and checking in our study patients ❤️.

On this let's spread awareness about the condition and ways we can help take back wellnesss!🌏🌱🌸

🩸What Is Sickle Cell Disease You Ask?
An inherited blood disorder in which red blood cells may become sickle-shaped and harden. For a baby to be born with sickle cell disease, both parents must carry a sickle cell trait or genes for another hemoglobin like HbC, HbE or beta thalassemia. Sickle cell disease is not contagious and there is no universal cure.

🩸Fun Facts You Should Know:
• An estimated 100,000 people in the U.S. have SCD

• About 1 in 13 African Americans carry the sickle cell trait, and many do not know they have it.

• Latinos have the second most common incidence in the U.S.

• Approximately 2,000 babies are born with SCD annually in the U.S. On average, diagnosis is made at birth.

🩸Ways We Can Help Those with SCD:
• Donate blood to support transfusions.

• Advocate for better treatment, education and research.

• Educate others about sickle cell disease and sickle cell trait.

• Get tested for sickle cell trait if you are of African descent and do not know your status.

• Support SCDAA as we search for a universal cure

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I’m telling lies.
I say,
It’s in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It’s the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can’t touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,
They say they still can’t see.
I say,
It’s in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

Now you understand
Just why my head’s not bowed.
I don’t shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing,
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It’s in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need for my care.
’Cause I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
