In this episode we interview Marta Hanson, Associate Professor of the History of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University about the concept of medical bilingualism and what it means for practitioners of Chinese medicine. We also delve into the history of epidemics in China, differences and similarities in responses between SARS and Covid-19, as well as her work on the influence of Chinese medicine in 17th century Europe and issues of translation between languages.
Each generation is experiencing the pandemic differently. For some, the trauma of the 1918 pandemic still echoes. Others worry about how to balance their own health and responsibilities with concerns about the health of their parents or children. In this episode, we’ll share stories about the impact of COVID-19 across generations. Our first story is from Mary Sue Kitchen, who was director of the Fairfax County Health Department Laboratory in Virginia for seventeen years from 1995-2012. In Mary Sue’s story, her grandmother's experience of the 1918 pandemic inspires and informs her career in public health. (Find transcripts and photos for each of our stories here: https://www.storycollider.org/stories-of-covid19) After Mary Sue’s story, our host speaks with Marta Hanson, associate professor of the history of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, about how we’ve responded to pandemics of the past.

I am so excited to share this chat I recorded with the one and the only, Lelia Gowland, Founder and CEO of Lelia Gowland, LLC! This episode was recorded on September 25th, and I was supposed to release it on November 14th, in time for the launch of her incredible book You Got This: The Ultimate Negotiation Guide For Professional Women. But, I got slammed by life in many ways. If I had read her book earlier, I might have been able to negotiate my way out of the over-commitment in so many ways! Lol. In this episode with Lelia Gowland, we talk about how she got started in the unique niche she created for herself, her experiences with, and opinions on current Diversity, Equity and Inclusion trends, and, what her book is all about! She also references some AMAZING people in her book. Lelia’s and all of these other references’ contact details are listed below.

Marta Hanson‘s book is a rich study of conceptions of space in medical thought and practice. Ranging from a deep history of the geographic imagination in China to an account of the SARS outbreak of the 21st century, Hanson’s book maps the transformations of medicine and healing in late imperial China that accompanied transforming geographies of empire. Speaking of Epidemics in Chinese Medicine: Disease and the Geographic Imagination in Late Imperial China (Routledge, 2011) is both the biography of a disease and a masterful tour through the history of medical practice and knowledge in later imperial China. Over the course of our discussion, we talked about the people and ideas that inspired Hanson’s work, the importance of “eureka moments,” and the SARS epidemic in Beijing. The author has generously shared a discount on her book for listeners of New Books in East Asian Studies.
