Super-excited to sign a contract for my book on #totalpain with @EdinburghUP ! Should be out in 2025, inc. chapters on holistic approaches to pain, narrative at the end of life and witnessing vulnerability and embodiment when someone is dying. Thanks to series ed. @drgavinmiller!

Due to demand we've increased our tickets for this free event tomorrow on transdisciplinary approaches to health, feelings, and the human #microbiome. Registration and more information here 👇 shorturl.at/tuvZ3

Curious how the human #microbiome shapes experiences of suffering in life-limiting illness and accelerated ageing? Why our ideas of a 'healthy gut' are problematic? 19thc literature framing of gut interconnectedness? We've got it all, no matter your discipline! Free event👇

Really exciting to be at the opening of the @StChrisHospice oral history project exhibition last night and see my words on the wall. So grateful to have been involved and have a go at writing fourteen 150 word essays instead of a 90,000 word thesis!
