MAT is an online, open-access, English-language journal, coedited by Eileen

Moyer (University of Amsterdam) and Vinh-Kim Nguyen (Graduate Institute

Geneva). The journal makes available a wide range of work relevant to

scholars of medical anthropology, STS, and critical global health studies.

The Dissertating section is a space where current students and recent

graduates can share their ideas with the wider academic community. We

invite authors to submit essays (up to 1,000 words) that consider how their

thinking developed and changed during the dissertation process. This would

not be a simple summary of the research or findings, but a response to one

or more of the following questions: What were some of the key texts that

influenced your research? Did you gain unexpected insights? What challenges

did you face while doing fieldwork or writing up your findings? How did you

refine your focus or rethink your agenda? Did you have an ‘a-ha’ moment

that forced you to change direction? We are interested in issues that

normally remain unmentioned in other articles. Once an essay passes the

review process by the journal’s editorial team, we will publish it quickly

and make your ideas accessible to a wide audience.

You can find our published essays online at:

http://www.medanthrotheory.org/category/dissertations-in-brief. Please

contact Rosie Sims (section editor, rosie.sims@graduateinstitute.ch) with

further questions, including if you have an idea for an essay but are not

sure whether it fits with the section.

All the best,

Medicine Anthropology Theory (MAT)
