Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this essay, I introduce the concept of drawing not just as a noun but as a verb, an activity, that can be used as a tool to gain greater insight and understanding across a breadth of medical sciences. This is rooted within the act of slow looking, and slow drawing, taking the time to really look at phenomena and respond to it by observing closely, analysing and collecting visual data through the activity of drawing. Examples briefly outlined include the visual investigation of a rare congenital disease, aspects of the experiences of ageing, the role of human remains in museums and how drawing can be used as a pedagogical tool for those training in medicine.
