This event has been postponed at the request of the organizers and participants, in solidarity with the ongoing Graduate Workers Union/UAW strike at Columbia University. We hope to set a new date in the coming weeks.
Registration coming soon!
Part of the Medical Humanities and Pandemic Urbanisms Series
To mark the launch of the Medical Humanities major at the Institute for Comparative Literature and Society, we are hosting an inaugural virtual series, “Medical Humanities and Pandemic Urbanisms,” which will serve as an essential rallying point for Columbia faculty, current students, and alumni of the Medicine, Literature and Society track. Featuring scholars, activists and artists from a range of fields—from epidemiology to science fiction to urban planning—the series will both illustrate the imaginative possibilities of the Medical Humanities, while also grounding its activities in the community-building work of students at Columbia University in the City of New York.
Faculty Facilitators Lan Li (Medical Humanities, Rice University) and Anthony Acciavatti (Architecture, Yale University), Alumni Facilitators Malvika Jolly, Adam Lee John
