Abstract
Feminist Encounters with the Medical Humanities
Highlights
This special issue of Feminist Encounters invites scholars from different disciplines and countries to explore the relationship between feminism and the medical humanities
Feminist approaches have made it possible to challenge modes of oppression inscribed in biomedical sciences
Whereas some scholars in the medical humanities have explicitly acknowledged their debts to feminism (e.g. Fitzgerald and Callard, 2016; Whitehead and Wood, 2016), this issue offers the first targeted exploration of connections between both fields
