Graham Mooney (Colloquium Mini Episode) - on alcohol and public health in Baltimore

Join us in our conversation with Nicole Labruto, anthropologist and director of the Medicine, Science, and the Humanities undergraduate major here at Johns Hopkins. In this episode, we discuss both Dr. Labruto’s own anthropological research – on sugar cane, science, the environment, and society – as well as the importance of offering an interdisciplinary education in the medical humanities and science, technology, and society to undergraduate students. In addition to speaking about her fascinating research, Dr. Labruto also shares several of her pedagogical tools and tips for teaching students in STS and the medical humanities.  As always, we hope you enjoy listening! But we especially hope that you enjoy this episode, as it is Antoine and Christy’s last one as co-hosts. “For the Medical Record” will take a break before re-starting with new co-hosts from the Center for Medical Humanities & Social Medicine community.
