Hi all,
The editorial team at *Rhetoric of Health and Medicine* is sending out a
general call for submissions to the journal. We publish all things medical
rhetoric, including original research articles, dialogues, review essays,
persuasion briefs, and more.
For additional information, please review our submission guidelines
<https://journals.upress.ufl.edu/rhm/about/submissions>. Our most recent
issue, “Keeping Care at the Core of RHM,” can be found here
<https://journals.upress.ufl.edu/rhm/issue/view/394>. About the journal:
*Rhetoric of Health & Medicine* (*RHM*) is a multidisciplinary journal
publishing original rhetorical studies (e.g., studies that use theories of
rhetoric or persuasion) of health and medical practices involving
communication. Such studies can combine rhetorical analysis with any number
of other humanistic or social scientific methodologies, including
critical/cultural analysis, ethnography, qualitative analysis, and
quantitative analysis; indeed, *RHM* seeks to encourage scholarly
conversations about health and medicine *across* fields of inquiry and
spheres of practice, in part by publishing inter- and trans-disciplinary
research.
Additionally, *RHM* seeks to contribute to understandings of a broad array
of health and medical practices, including but not limited to the history
of medicine, patient-provider communication, patient advocacy, patient
accessibility, health literacy, public health campaigns, public health
policymaking, drug development and marketing, medical training, visual and
multimodal communication, medical ethics, environmental health, health and
medical technologies, international and intercultural health, health
disparities, and eHealth. Articles published in *RHM* foreground insights
about health, illness, healing, and wellness *and* theoretical and/or
methodological contributions to rhetorically studying these phenomena.
In addition to research articles, *RHM* occasionally publishes dialogues,
review essays, and overviews of rhetorical research for health
policymakers, practitioners, and publics (see Submission Types
<https://journals.upress.ufl.edu/rhm/guidelines> for descriptions of these).
Please share widely! We look forward to reading your work!
Best,
Annika
