ATRIUM ISSUE 10:  The theme is "GRAPHIC"

GUEST CO-EDITORS: MK CZERWIEC & CATHERINE BELLING

Think creatively about broad interpretations of the theme. The adjective 'graphic' describes that which is represented in such a way that it is easily visualized. For example, we present information in graphs so that a reader can see, rather than have to calculate, data relationships. 'Graphic' can refer to representations of what we usually keep hidden from view, to images that are uncommonly or shockingly vivid, especially in ways that concern bodies. And at its most literal, the 'graphic' is what is drawn, in pictures, rather than written, in words. What does graphic representation have to do with illness or health care?

Short proposals must be submitted by August 1st, 2011. They will be evaluated, and complete articles invited, by mid-August. Finished drafts will be due by September 15th, 2011.

Please read the ATRIUM submission guidelines at http://bioethics.northwestern.edu/atrium/submissions.html before emailing proposals to guest co-editors MK Czerwiec and Catherine Belling at c-belling@northwestern.edu by August 1st.
