Join in for a thought-provoking evening with Shoumita Dasgupta, PhD, as we celebrate her groundbreaking new book, Where Biology Ends and Bias Begins — part of the yearlong Being Human spotlight at the Museum of Science. In conversation with award-winning science journalist and author Angela Saini, this dialogue will explore the science behind race, ethnicity, sex and gender, and disability — unpacking how these aspects of identity have been misunderstood, misused, and often weaponized in medicine, policy, public discourse, and emerging technologies.
Written for audiences from high school students to professionals, Where Biology Ends and Bias Begins is essential reading for anyone interested in the intersection of science, equity and social justice. Come ready to learn, reflect and explore how we can all contribute to a more inclusive, informed future. The evening will conclude with a book signing with Dr. Dasgupta.
