@BeatriAnthro This is more cultural/ethnic studies, but I thought Experiments in Skin by Thuy-Linh Nguyen-Tu had a lot to offer for medical anthropology (and vice versa).

What does anthropology say about the emotional lives of others? – https://t.co/rcHKhtdo93 via @aeonmag

@findingsen Great article! I found this quote to be especially intriguing: "I often ask them questions to guide them through their feelings and situation and empower them to self-govern." Can I ask if Ngoc Binh used "self-govern" in English, or was this all in Vietnamese?
