Why Medical Humanities and Bioethics?
Five-minute faculty takes on the field and how we got here

Come help us kick off the academic year with a fun introduction to our faculty! Interdisciplinarity is a defining feature of our field. So what draws scholars from their home disciplines into Medical Humanities and Bioethics? What problems can be explored and addressed in new ways in this space? MHB faculty will offer pithy disciplinary and personal perspectives on these questions in a fast-paced, flash presentation format. You’ll hear from:

Megan Crowley-Matoka (Anthropology) 

Catherine Belling (Literature)  

Tod Chambers (Religion)

Sarah Rodriguez (History)

Katie Watson (Law) 


This lecture is open to the public and will be held in the Searle Seminar Room in the Lurie Research Building (303 E Superior), Chicago Campus. For those outside the Chicago area and anyone who would prefer to attend remotely, a Zoom option is also available.
