If you’re finalizing your #medsoc syllabus and want a short paper that links the soc imagination to health systems, check out my new paper, just published in Contexts Mag. I use the case of the Learning Health System to talk about building real utopias and shaking up established relations in healthcare, esp in the context of covid and racial/gender justice movements in the US. Happy to do a class visit & explainer if you teach it! https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/15365042221131073
