Critical Commentary

I’m interested in how clinicians--and scientific communities, writ large--take up particular concepts and how they circulate. This infographic is particularly interesting in that the website it lists is no longer in operation and is unclear who the target audience is. Images--particularly infographics--are interesting to study in how they attempt to translate complex phenomena into easily digestible images and figures to various audiences.
