The Integrating Special Populations Core facilitates research that promotes health equity for populations that have traditionally been under-represented in health research or excluded altogether, including:

• Infants and children/pediatric populations (birth to 21 years)

• Adolescents and young adults

• Older adults    

• People with disabilities and/or rare disorders

• People who have been underserved or underrepresented in clinical research (e.g., African Americans, Native Americans, Latinos, rural populations or populations with low socioeconomic status).
