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

My goal as a researcher is to make apparent <\/span>what<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>who<\/span><\/i> matters\u2014and <\/span>how<\/span><\/i> they come to matter\u2014in medical discourses. To do this, I analyze the ways textual authority sanctions knowledges about medical bodies and subjects. For the 2019 RHM Symposium, my work in progress analyzes the rhetorical and disciplinary work of the patient medical history form. The patient medical history form, I argue, shapes patient-users\u2019 knowledge of the medical subject, both in terms of medicine as a discipline as well as the patient\u2019s medical subjectivity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other projects I am working on surface implicit disciplinary values and priorities in medical writing. In a chapter I wrote for the edited collection <\/span>Women\u2019s Health Advocacy: Rhetorical Ingenuity for the 21<\/span><\/i>st<\/span><\/i> Century<\/span><\/i>, I analyze textual representations of patients\u2019 bodies and how these representations allow some bodies to emerge as \u201cnormal\u201d and others as \u201cexcess.\u201d I am also currently working on a project that mobilizes <\/span>stasis<\/span><\/i> theory in order to examine the different boundaries of evidence in conflicting published medical guidelines on the annual pelvic exam.<\/span><\/p>\n
