Quinn Capers, IV, MD

Professor and Chair, Dept of Medicine
Howard University College of Medicine
Washington, District of Columbia, United States

Dr. Capers has been widely decorated as an educator, clinician, and champion of diversity enhancement in medicine. A graduate of Howard University and The Ohio State University College of Medicine, he trained in internal medicine, cardiovascular diseases, and interventional cardiology at Emory University. He introduced the trans-radial artery technique of coronary stenting to The Ohio State University (OSU) cardiac catheterization laboratory and led its transformation to a “radial first” lab.

Considered a thought leader in the areas of diversity in medicine, racial healthcare disparities, and bias in medicine, Capers led the first study to document the presence and extent of unconscious racial bias in medical school admissions. He was the inaugural Chair of the ACC’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee in 2020 and in that role led national efforts to diversify the specialty of cardiology.
