I’m excited and honored to serve as the Medical Humanities Club’s President! I am a junior majoring in English with a minor in Religion on the pre-medicine track. The aspect of Medical Humanities that interests me the most is the study of how ancient cultures incorporated medicine into religious life and entertainment. Outside of school, I love reading, thrifting, and learning about holistic health.

I am excited to serve as the Medical Humanities Club’s Vice President! My favorite aspect of medical humanities is its intersectionality between topics such as history, medical inequities, ethics, and global healthcare, and I am excited to utilize this wide range of information to improve the current medical field. In my free time, I enjoy dancing as a part of Rice Dance Theater, reading, and spending time with friends.

Blurb: I'm excited to continue my work as Treasurer this year for the Medical Humanities Club! I've always loved Medical Humanities for its ability to connect philosophy and ethics to healthcare, and I'm especially fascinated by medical technology. Outside of MedHum, I love rock climbing, writing, and concerts.

Hi, I'm Elizabeth, and I can't wait to serve again as the Lunch and Learn Officer this year in the MedHum Club! I'm a firm believer in the power of integrating the humanities into medicine, especially through conversations about ethics, art, religion, and the human experience in healthcare. I'm excited to plan Lunch and Learns where many different perspectives and areas of the humanities can be discussed. Outside of MedHum, I enjoy playing the piano, exploring Houston's museums, hanging out with my dog, and thrifting!

Hi everyone! My name is Abby Perez, and I’m so excited to be this year’s Publicity Chair for the Medical Humanities Club! I’m passionate about exploring the human side of medicine and how storytelling, culture, and ethics shape the way we understand health and healing. Outside of my love for the sciences and the humanities, I’m also a big fan of drawing, binge-watching shows, trying new coffee spots, or spontaneous target shopping days. I’m looking forward to helping share all the amazing things our club is doing this year!

I'm so excited to serve as the Editor-in-Chief for the Medical Humanities Club. I love MedHum because it serves as a lens to understand patient narratives beyond just diagnoses and treatment plans; it's a means of seeing patienthood on a deeper, moral level. I'm excited to learn even more through your submissions to the journal! Outside of MedHum, I love cafe hopping, playing tennis (sometimes a little pickleball), and hiking.
