CONCLUSION: Danielle Mitchell is a woman with extraordinary foresight and she has used that foresight to become a catalyst for change within the clinical research industry. While everyone else focused solely on increasing patient di- versity Danielle saw the need for diversifying the clinical research workforce. She understands that in order for patients to agree to participate in clinical trials they must first trust the staff. Her understanding and forethought led Danielle to create an organization dedicated to educating, training and mentoring black women interested in entering and/or advancing in the clinical research industry. Black Women in Clinical Research increased awareness regarding the lack of diversity in the industry and it continues to pave the way for all.
