Welcome to episode 2. The episode focuses on the variations of obesity across different ethnic groups - weight stigma and attitudes towards obesity vary greatly across cultures.
To discuss this and more, Alexander is joined by Dr Fatima Stanford. Dr Stanford is an obesity medicine physician scientist, educator, and policy maker at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
As well as analysing and examining the myriad cultural differences relating to obesity, Dr Stanford takes Alexander through a history of bias in the media, and how healthcare professionals and practitioners can avoid stigma and influence from harmful stereotypes. Dr Stanford references the Implicit Association Test. Find out more here: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/uk/takeatest.html
