The Ongoing Incorrect Use of Caucasian in Medical Research.
As medical research continues to promise the advancement of health equity, it is called to address its incorrect and ongoing use of the term "Caucasian." The term "Caucasian" has persisted in medical research despite its entanglement with beliefs of race as a biological factor. To continue to advance efforts in addressing health disparities and achieving health equity, researchers are called to use accurate racial and ethnic terminology.
