For my mixed methods dissertation project, I am seeking to 1) characterize the features of psychedelic rhetoric; 2) identify relationships between psychedelic experience and the development of health\/wellness ideologies and literacy practices; and 3) identify the rhetorical and literacy practices by which health\/wellness ideologies continue to be sustained and\/or shift over time. To do this, I am collecting qualitative data from semi-structured interviews and focus groups with both past participants and facilitators of psychedelic clinical trials. The work in progress I submitted for this symposium represents the non-human subjects chapter and potential article wherein I theorize psychedelic rhetoric through the framework of &#8220;conspirituality&#8221; and offer a brief case study of the Center for Countering Digital Hate appointed &#8220;disinformation dozen&#8221; member Kelly Brogan.<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #333333\"><br \/>\nI am also involved in psychedelic networks in Madison both within the academy and beyond: as a founding member of an Interdisciplinary Psychedelic Activism and Environmental Research Working Group sponsored by the UW Center for Culture, History, and Environment (CHE); an advisory member of UW&#8217;s emergent Transdisciplinary Center for Research in Psychoactive Substances; a member of the admissions committee for the new Master&#8217;s program in Psychoactive Pharmaceutical Investigation; a data archivist consultant for the Porta Sophia psychedelic prior art library; and a member of the Madison Psychedelic Society community group.<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #333333\"><br \/>\nIn addition to my current fellowships through the English department and the Holtz Center for Science and Technology Studies, I have received generous support from the Center for Culture, History, and Environment and the Latin American, Caribbean, and Iberian Studies Programs at UW.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact:\u00a0<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #333333\">apratt4@wisc.edu | @amandarpy (Twitter and Instagram)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amanda Rose Pratt (she\/they) Graduate Fellow, English Department and Holtz Center for Science and Technology Studies University of Wisconsin &#8211; Madison Description of Work: I study the rhetoric of psychedelics, both broadly and as related specifically to health and medicine. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/participants\/amanda-rose-pratt\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":15,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-371","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/371","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=371"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/371\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":429,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/371\/revisions\/429"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medicalrhetoric.com\/symposium2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=371"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
