I am also interested in health literacy and its role in developing and supporting patient and caregiver agency, especially in chronic illness. Having lost my niece and two friends to cystic fibrosis, I have been especially interested in that illness community. However, over the last couple of years, I have developed an interest in sickle cell disease and, in addition to the project for this conference, I am working on a health literacy project concerning gene therapy and bone marrow transplant for sickle cell.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title:\u00a0Associate Professor University: University of Memphis Email: ajyoung@memphis.edu Website: https:\/\/www.memphis.edu\/communication\/people\/young.php Description of your work My work has focused on the rhetorical construction of agency in patient\/provider interactions in a variety &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/amanda-mandy-young\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Amanda (Mandy) Young&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-323","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/323","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=323"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/323\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":324,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/323\/revisions\/324"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2019\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=323"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
