About

I addressed Narrative Medicine Rounds at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons on September 2. My topic was the role of disability studies in medical education. The address will be podcast (audio only). Details at http://www.narrativemedicine.org/programs/nmr.html

I have a new book forthcoming in November from the University of Michigan Press: Signifying Bodies: Disability in Contemporary Life Writing. http://www.press.umich.edu/titleDetailDesc.do?id=915367

My last name rhymes with "browser."
