Hey #histmed , I'll have a limited number of Nursing Clio stickers to give out at #AAHM2024 ! Whatever it is that you do - radical scholarship, histories of women, gender, and sexuality, history of medicine, reproductive health, personal reflections, let's talk!

Yes it’s old and faded, but my tote choice this morning has me all excited for AAHM in KC in 28 days! Shout out to my Hopkins crew for that ‘12 meeting as well!

Friends, we are having a temporary issue with the #histmed website - please be patient with us as we get this fixed! Sorry!!

The Army Medical Department Center of History and Heritage is organizing a special issue of the Army Medical Department Journal about medicine in the American Revolution. AAHM members interested in contributing should contact Sanders Marble, [email protected].

Who can help, #histmed ?

Some professional news: Dora Vargha and I are thrilled to share the launch of “Epidemic Histories,” a new global history of science and medicine series with Hopkins Press. We're so excited to be working with Matt McAdam as series editors!
