"Implicit bias refers to the unconscious and unintentional mental associations that we make about others, often along lines of personal identity factors like race or religion or gender."
"Implicit bias in clinical settings can influence doctors' judgments, especially when they are under stress, pressed for time, or fatigued; this can lead to misdiagnosis or inadequate treatment."
