So, I’m teaching technical writing courses this semester and I found a way to merge my work with addiction recovery rhetoric, public health studies, and med rhet. It’s a vibe and I’m loving it. The students are also super into it. #publichealth #addictonrecoveryrhetoric #medrhet #publicrhetoric

Graham – Rhetoricians of Health and Medicine

Most #bioethics folks know Good Ethics, Bad Choices, and #MedRhet folks should know it too. It's a provocative and not always easy to agree with, but still 100% worth a read. Here's my RHM Journal review that landed last year & I didn't even realize till now- lol: medicalrhetoric.com/vol-6-issue-...

Packing to head to the RHM Symposium (with my mask and my portable air purifier). Feeling some proud nostalgia that 10 years ago I hosted the first. Time certainly flies. #TeamRhetoric #MedRhet

I just read an article from the latest issue of @JournalRhm that is so good I have to share here: Julie Homchick Crowe's "Toxically Clean: Homophonic Expertise, Goop, and the Ideology of Choice." SO GOOD. #medrhet http://journals.upress.ufl.edu/rhm/article/view/1109

Shocking story of diagnostic overshadowing—when health professionals presume that a person's immediate health concern is part of an existing mental health condition rather than investigating the cause of the patient's symptoms. #medrhet...

Re-upping: seeking suggestions for a senior English undergrad seminar on pandemic rhetoric. Readings should be accessible to students without rhetoric experience. Relevant topics: public health, pharma research, vax hesitance, health inequities.... #teamrhetoric #medrhet #rhetsci...

I'm starting to feel like a new genre is emerging on Twitter —one that I love because it's super wonky & visual. It seems to have emerged along with COVID-19. Curious if anyone has noticed the same, esp those working in writing studies, #teamrhetoric, #medrhet, or tech comm. 1/

Another fun #medrhet COVID-19 project idea: tracking uses/interpretations/intensities of the descriptor "mild." For some, mild COVID = cold-like symptoms with persistent dry cough; for others, "mild" = unable to breathe without coughing, bedridden, weeklong fever. Such variety!

Rhetoric colleagues: do you have recommendations for Master's programs in rhetoric with a focus on global politics/issues? Asking for a student. Please and thanks!

WHAT IF several #medrhet scholars teaching grad courses in the same semester coordinated their syllabi, sometimes Skype-visited each other’s classes, and formed some kind of virtual community? Is this a thing anyone would want to do? With me, say?

Watching all these #4C19 scholar selfies gives me some fomo about not presenting my paper on piety and performance in wellness discourse because my personal life took me elsewhere. Genuinely feel torn! Hi, esp to my #medrhet people.

I just received my 3 anonymous external assessment reports for a grant application and am BLOWN AWAY by the quality of feedback I received—such thoughtful and constructively critical engagement with my ideas! My #medrhet colleagues prove you can be smart, rigorous, *and* kind.
