ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

The Upper Valley will be the location for the 9th  international Comics and Medicine conference. Prior locations include Seattle, Chicago, Dundee (Scotland), Toronto, Baltimore, and Brighton (England).

Comics and Medicine conference explores the interaction between the medium of comics and the discourse of health care. We are a community of academics, health care providers, authors, artists, and fans of comics and medicine. Comics can explore the issue of accessibility in past and current practices of health care and can point to imaginative solutions for extending and expanding health care.

•  90 registrations as of May 2!

•  3 days of programming, August 16-18

Conference will take place at The Center for Cartoon Studies (White River Junction, VT) and Dartmouth College (Hanover, NH), with tourism opportunities throughout the Upper Valley, along with marketing to attendance from around the globe.

Over 150 professionals from medical fields, cartoonists, educators, researchers, business professionals, and college students will attend the Comics and Medicine conference. Attendees will travel from around the globe, with the majority traveling from across the U.S. Some programming will be open to the local community.
