The Gerstein Science Information Centre is pleased to host the Graphic Medicine: Ill Conceived & Well-Drawn! travelling exhibition from the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM)! Graphic medicine is the use of comics to tell personal stories of illness and health. These visual stories are a way of understanding illness and health care, and can be essential to effective treatment, healing, and understanding.
Visitors are welcome to view this six-panel exhibition showcasing this comics-based genre of medical literature, borrow a book from our graphic medicine collection, or attend a hands-on science communication workshop.
When: Oct 17 to Nov 24, 2024 (during opening hours)
Where: Lobby, Gerstein Science Information Centre
(Produced by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, the original exhibition was curated by Ellen Forney, an artist, educator, and New York Times bestselling writer).
