Shelley Wall is an artist and illustrator, and a professor of biomedical communications University of Toronto medical school. She is also the on-the-ground organizer of the 2012 Comics & Medicine conference, which will take place in less than a month! In this conversation with MK, Shelley talks about how her degree in literature, medicine, illustration, and comics came together in her career. She also discusses what she’s excited about for the upcoming conference. It’s become dramatically clear that the Graphic Medicine Podcast needs a theme song, so I’m asking our listeners for submissions and suggestions! Email me directly, comicnurse@mac.com. Enjoy!
