This Week in Graphic Medicine (8/16/2019)

This Week in Graphic Medicine in a Stranger Things Stylized Font

‘This Week in Graphic Medicine’ highlights news about comics in medicine published during the week (Saturday – Friday). Links are typically presented without commentary, unless clarification of relevance is necessary. So without further ado…


Matthew’s Pick of the Week…

My pick of the week is this much-needed scholarly comic – Writing medical comics – by the always great Miriam Waite. As I noted on Twitter, there has been a lot of conversation about the need for guidance on just how to develop medical comics, but thus far those conversations have led to little. Hopefully this is a change in that tide!

Note: The Journal’s twitter account claims the article is online FREELY until the end of September: https://twitter.com/jviscomm/status/1162361612252143621.
