About This Innovation

* Moore did research on the distribution and differences in blood types between Black and white Americans at Howard University College of Medicine. * The diverse university population included African Americans as a random sample for Black Americans. * Moore's experiment determined ABO blood types and the subgroups of ABO that are MN and Rh. * Comparison of her results to those of the other experiments suggested that Rh blood types might be a good starting ground for studying and building a foundation of knowledge about different racial backgrounds.
