On this week’s episode, two more doctors making comics. Plus a new theme jingle!
First, Monica Lalanda, an emergency room physician from Spain. You can learn more about Monica’s work, and her book Con-Ciencia Medica on her site. She tweets @mlalanda. Here is one of her comics translated into English.
My second guest is geriatrician Muna AlJawad, presenter at the 2011 Chicago Comics & Medicine conference and organizer of the 2013 Comics & Medicine conference in Brighton, England, and creator of Old Person Whisperer. Muna is currently doing research using comics as her methodology.
Support for this podcast comes from Penn State College of Medicine, Department of Humanities, the nation’s oldest Humanities Department within a medical school, pioneers of innovations in medical education since 1967.
MK, Aaron played this for me just now. Thank you so much for your kindness and encouragement. It’s wonderful that my mom’s personality came through as you say. There’s more to come, inshallah.
Enjoyed the podcast. As a doc, I’ve found that comics are an excellent way to communicate, educate and entertain. Thanks for sharing!
