We are delighted to announce the launch of Medical and Health Humanities. Conceived as “a department without walls,” this is a new online space for diverse writers to think about the connections between the practice of medicine and scholarly activity in the humanities — literature, anthropology, history, and the arts. We’ll be in touch soon with a call for new writers. In the meantime, feel free to look around and get to know our space: it’s one to watch.
