Miss having Faith Fletcher, PhD, MA at #ASBH22 so much!! She’s a force and a leading voice in Black Bioethics. So glad to get to participate in this conversation about the amazing The Hastings Center for Bioethics report on Anti-Black racism today (and rave about Faith in her absence so she can’t stop us)

Alright #ASBH22: have an interest in ethical issues in incarceration?? Today is your day!! 1st: 7am Psych AG: Addressing Carceral Harm & Mental Illness. 2nd: 9:45 a panel w/ Andrea K. Knittel & Matt Murphy on ethical considerations of research w/ incarcerated pts. Join us!

Fred Ward took the room to church! Was so glad to be there. Thanks Paul J Ford for connecting him with #ASBH22! Grateful we were able to learn from him! Thanks Laura Guidry-Grimes for organizing a great session!

This plenary is phenomenal. Abigail Echo-Hawk telling us she’s going to make us uncomfortable. “Working toward equity is uncomfortable and not voluntary.” YES. Seriously one of the best and most important plenaries I’ve seen. #ASBH22

Saw this gorgeous and powerful piece of art in the #ASBH22 exhibit hall. Didn’t see a sign, no idea what it was. Well Abigail Echo-Hawk is TELLING US. I can’t even express the power of this talk and the layers embedded in this dress that I couldn’t (and can’t) begin to comprehend.




A year ago we awarded Faith Fletcher, PhD, MA the 1sr Dr. Claretta Dupree Award for commitment to justice in bioethics. Today at #ASBH22, based on Faith’s nomination, we present the 2nd Claretta Dupree Award to Virginia A Brown PhD. ❤️Intergenerational community & celebration w/RACE AG!


Seriously this The Hastings Center for Bioethics sessions at #ASBH22 was amazing. This panel of editors is doing some of the most important work in the field right now! @DrKeishaRay Virginia A Brown PhD and Patrick Smith were awesome and it was a wonderful community space. We all missed Faith Fletcher, PhD, MA


The Emancipatory Sciences Lab is out in the wild!! Hosting a reception with Routledge Books at #GSA2022!! Our fearless leader Jarmin Yeh welcomes the crowd. #AgingAtoZ



The beautiful and informative content that comes out of the Emancipatory Sciences Lab is due to our amazing team of graduate student co-assistant directors. We support them. If I was in charge of our content it would be one 37 tweet-long thread every 4 months. No one wants that #FairUCNow

Soooo I don’t know if you know because you missed the closing session, but Feminist Midwife 🏳️🌈🍉 you won the student paper award!!! Well deserved for fantastic scholarship!!!! #reproethicsconf2023

I can’t speak highly enough about #reproethicsconf2023. Thanks so much to @IBHH_UTMB & Lisa Campo-Engelstein. Seriously mark your calendars for this meeting next year! Fantastic scholarship, amazing discussions, and really lovely people!


Such a privilege to publish w/ @DrKeishaRay Faith Fletcher, PhD, MA & Daphne Martschenko, PhD! So grateful to @DrKeishaRay for leading this effort (and all the labor to make it perfect!) I write on carceral medicine & the need for #AbolitionEthics. If #bioethics says #BLM we must center incarceration
