The quilting section at Spotlight makes the 'are women suited to surgery?' discussion seem ludicrous. Quilters have been piecing fabric and driving needles through complex designs for centuries. Needle holders, right angle forceps, cutting blades- all here. #ILookLikeASurgeon

Poet John Keats (1795-1821) once considered a career in medicine, apprenticing at the age of 14 to the family doctor. Although he later abandoned this idea, he drew on his physician’s vision to interpret the nature and meaning of life. Medical elements emerge in his poem “Ode to Psyche.” https://t.co/50PGAtj6zJ .

The Vagina Museum is just one month away from closing. Forever. A perfect storm of circumstances means that we may have to close our doors permanently and cease all digital activities. But we're not going to go down without a fight. Save the Vagina Museum. https://t.co/jc0IjjtInF

‘Any effective response to the anti-gender movement will entail a critique of the new forms of authoritarianism and the passions they exploit.’

NEW: Judith Butler on Trump and ‘gender ideology’.

It's one year since the open-access medical humanities special issue 'The Pathological Body' was published.

Take a look if you're interested in literature, languages, bodies, and the global impact of C19th European medicine that shaped modern life.

📕The Languages of Covid-19 is out now in paperback (and #OpenAccess here: https://t.co/hENBQ6xD9w). The book’s legacy lies in the case it makes for linguistic sensitivity and translational mediation as *essential* elements of global healthcare and future pandemic preparedness.
