Description of your work<\/b><\/h3>\n

As an RHM scholar, I focus on the role rhetorical <\/span>ethos <\/span><\/i>plays in various health and medical realties. I find that <\/span>ethos <\/span><\/i>offers a <\/span>highly generative framework for investigating the roles stigmas and abuses play in patterns of persuasion as they relate to social reproduction in health and medicine and beyond. I focus, in particular, on stigmas that accompany psychiatric diagnoses and misdiagnoses of physical conditions as psychological problems. Working from ephemeral qualitative data, I trace everyday rhetors\u2019 tactics for building and rebuilding their credibility when it is unfairly compromised. I am equally interested in women\u2019s health advocacy and in producing scholarship that might offer methodological models for future RHM projects that take serendipity, creativity, and strong ethical grounding as major focal points. As a workshop facilitator at this year\u2019s symposium, I\u2019ll get to do one of my favorite things: hear all about what other RHM folks are up to with their research and writing!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
