A pleasure to listen to @CMO_England speak on generalism, multi-morbidity and medical education at #DEMEC21 #DEMEC2021 this afternoon. As an historian of medicine, I particularly relished the nod to the long history of the relationship/tensions between specialism and generalism.
Pleasure to help represent @AoMRC in this important work to support the SAS community. Thanks @parthaskar and @AntonEmmanuel2 for your commitment and enthusiasm.

#WomenInSTEM #histmed 🧵 👇🏾 Here is a letter from Ronald Ross to fellow parasitologist David Bruce from 1917. Ross was appointed consultant on malaria to the War Office during WWI & set up a team to conduct clinical & laboratory research on malaria treatments for the troops. 1/4
Celebrate the birth of William Blake #OTD with this gorgeous 1880 edition of his Life & Works. The #Rossetti brothers helped the writer's widow Anne Gilchrist complete it when her husband (Alexander) died in 1861. Cover design by Frederic Shields. #PreRaphaelite #Romanticism
Early c20th publishers bigging up their own titles by selling them as having an “amaze-promoting quality” 😂 oh that one of my books will be marketed like this one day!
So in this week's tales from the @RCPSGheritage #archive, an Italian nobleman, Prince Enrico Ruspoli of Nemi writes to the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine in 1907 to ask for remedies & any printed material they might have on Black Water Fever (a complication of malaria)
Good morning, #shotnola @SocHistTech conference goers! Now freely available online, from the latest issue of Technology and Culture: Amelia Bonea's "Contagion by Telephone: Print Media and Knowledge about Infectious Diseases in Britain, 1880s–1914": bit.ly/3Hv98Xk
this is smth I explore in my other book (Possessing Our Own Bodies: Gut Health in Victorian Culture) & it relates to that nuance we were discussing in public health messaging &the problem of narrative resolution. It also strikes me as a particularly western way of storytelling
@PamelaKGilbert @kilojoule_ @ghatak_suvendu in expressing the ambiguous ontological position of microbes, Macfie describes them (1907) as "drunkards &dairymen, tobacconists&tanners, scavengers&cooks, brewers &florists, philanthropists&homocides, spirits of health &goblins damned"
Fascinating discussions emerged from #ChroniclesofContagion tonight - what genres articulate emerging public health crises? And what are the stakes of changing them? #histmed #scicomm #litsci #medhums
