This Week in Graphic Medicine (2/2/18)

This Week in Graphic Medicine in a Stranger Things Stylized Font
‘This Week in Graphic Medicine’ highlights relevant articles (and tweets) about comics in medicine published during the week (Saturday – Friday). Links are typically presented without commentary, unless clarification of relevance is necessary, with credit given to those who flagged them up where possible. So without further ado…


Matthew’s Pick of the Week…

This week there can be no question of what to highlight, as on February 1st the AMA Journal of Ethics issue dedicated to Graphic Medicine and Health Care Ethics went live! You may recall seeing me share and post the call-for-papers for this issue over-and-over last Summer – ironically enough, I never managed to submit a proposal myself with all the travel I was doing to promote the field. Hah!

The issue is edited by Taylor Olmsted, MD, a pediatric hematology/oncology fellow and Michael Green, MD, a physician and bioethicist (one of the founding members of Graphic Medicine). The articles – which include comics and a podcast – are authored by a veritable Who’s Who of graphic medicine and I would need the entire length of this week’s post to highlight them all. Lucky for us, there’s an About the Contributors page at the bottom of the issue’s table of contents.

As we all know, graphic medicine is a massively interdisciplinary field, meaning there are likely times what I share here has little interest for some of you. But fear not, for that is not the case with this issue! There are articles on everything from Ethics Cases to Medical Education to History of Medicine and more. That said, it is surprising to not see an explicit article about art therapy in this issue – perhaps a group we need more direct attention to.

Since there is so much here, throughout the coming weeks, Graphic Medicine social media gurus MK and Ian – and myself – will be highlighting each article. Perhaps one a day or so. And while getting the word out like this is great in its own right, what would make this even better is if YOU would share your thoughts on those postings. Opening up the scholarly conversation on social media gives us a chance to explore together and also show those not already sold on the idea of comics in medicine more opportunity to become sold. I’ll end this rambling with two tweets I sent today, highlighting further my excitement with this issue going live. ‘Til next time!

I was already looking forward to reading “Are Comic Books Appropriate Health Education Formats to Offer Adult Patients?”, but now I’m doubly-so because I think this is my first time being included in a reference list! https://t.co/MOD4fAkfSN pic.twitter.com/9ADKcS7EWy

@NoetheMatt Hey Matthew, I have a PharmD student looking into narrative medicine and maybe expanding to graphic medicine for a research project. Do you have a resource guide?

— ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ Franklin Sayre ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ (@mysnuggle) January 26, 2018

Oh that’s great. @pfanderson‘s libguide is a good starting place – and it has a link to a webinar I did on it. From there, best bet is to read the Graphic Medicine Manifesto and probably Rita Charon’s Narrative Medicine book. https://t.co/uhZQTo59nE

— Matthew Noe (@NoetheMatt) January 26, 2018

And this is out-of-date (updating hopefully mid-March), but as good a starting point for scholarly articles on GM as any: https://t.co/jk4UIoaTzh

“Whenever I think comics are not capable of something, somebody always proves me wrong.” @scottmccloud

— Matthew Noe (@NoetheMatt) January 26, 2018

This is especially true for journalistic or memoir (#GraphicMedicine) comics. Those imperfections, for me, are almost a requirement for any sort of work trying to tell an honest account. That clumsiness, somehow, make it feel… true.

This nagging approach to counseling on med adherence never seems to work. As @metrokitty points out, there is a big emotional component to taking medications. (But it was still a fun first attempt at #GraphicMedicine for me) pic.twitter.com/Zwd8o3mYmS

I love the use of the term ill-conceived here. This is what I find so interesting about graphic medicine–at its best it’s interested in the conjunction illness-thought-politics in history. #GraphicCultures18 https://t.co/yp5sZ7uP49

The term @GraphicMedicine was coined by Dr Ian Williams, author of The Bad Doctor -a favorite..

This! Weighing the cost of sharing information is vital to good patient relationships. It is also a key part of educating people about #PrecisionMedicine or any other genetic involved health. There are risks to knowing that may outweigh risks to NOT knowing. #GraphicMedicine https://t.co/ztMdE6KDuT

If it is GN length, @MyriadEditions and/or @PSUPress perhaps. If it is shorter, then @AnnalsofIM‘s graphic medicine series may be appropriate.

Perhaps there is an important reason for the rise of reflective practice in medicine to be found here. As #EMR‘s force physician notes to be open to patients, are practitioners losing a place to empty their minds in relative privacy? #GraphicMedicine https://t.co/PsUTYgVSDo
