Leah Marcotte, MD (ISI 2023):

It is impossible to express how much ISI has supported and influenced my work.

"Following ISI 2023, I wrote a proposal for an NIH K award — my conceptual frameworks and research strategies flowed readily from the inspiring ISI sessions and reading list. I've continued to engage with the 2025 writing retreat and the Collective at Scholar Tier.  I have benefited from Collective Scholar Office Hours and I go to Salons whenever I can. Finally, at ISI 2023, Dr. Bowleg told us all that we must maintain social justice portfolios. I keep this as a regular mantra and reflection to make sure our work truly promotes health equity and benefits communities."

What Is Intersectionality?

Rooted in the experiences of Black and other women of color in the U.S. and Black feminist activism, intersectionality highlights how multiple and intersecting systems of oppression (e.g., racism, sexism, heterosexism, and ableism) shape social, economic and health outcomes and inequities based on intersectional positions (e.g., racial/ethnic group, sex, gender, sexual and gender minority status, socioeconomic status, and disability) and their relationships to power and privilege.
