Thank you to everyone who joined us for lunch with Distinguished Bowman and Gray Professor Jane Thrailkill as we explore the art of using literature to capture patient narratives. What is an illness metaphor? How does a patient express pain through the spoken and written word? How can we glean a better understanding of the patient experience through literary analysis in conjunction with our medical lens? These are questions that we explored in an interactive literary session with Dr. Thrailkill.
