In this episode, I talk to Sophie Evans. Sophie is an internal medicine trainee and budding haematologist in the southwest of England and has a real interest in the importance of stories in medicine. We met after she took part in the BSH Crucible Prize where she presented her ideas along with beautiful hand-drawn images on her slides. We discuss narrative-based medicine as well as graphic medicine. This is a really intriguing discussion that will change how you think about how you consult and I hope can change your practice for the better. You can find Sophie's art on Instagram: www.instagram.com/sophietevans/. She mentions this book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Narrative-Based-Medicine-Trisha-Greenhalgh/dp/0727912232, Ian Williams, who coined the phrase "Graphic Medicine" (https://myriadeditions.com/creator/ian-williams/) and I mentioned a really interesting study on Evolution and the Art of Storytelling: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-017-02036-8 I hope you enjoy the show.
