    Sociologist PATRICIA KINGORI, Professor of Global Health Ethics at the WELLCOME CENTRE FOR ETHICS & HUMANITIES (ETHOX), UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD (www.ndph.ox.ac.uk/team/patricia-kingori) in conversation with award-winning American journalist SUSANNAH CAHALAN (www.susannahcahalan.com/), author of THE GREAT PRETENDER about American psychologist DAVID ROSENHAN's influential 1973 study, ON BEING SANE IN INSANE PLACES. The study used pseudopatients to challenge the process of psychiatric diagnosis. Susannah herself was misdiagnosed with a mental illness, which she documented in BRAIN ON FIRE: MY MONTH OF MADNESS (www.susannahcahalan.com/work-1), and so was well-placed to investigate.

  • EXPLORING THE GENUINE FAKE 07 | Delia Jarrett-Macauley
    Oct 21 2020
    Join writer DELIA JARRETT-MACAULEY as she reflects on the challenges of creating an authentic reality, and how that sometimes involves blurring the boundaries between fact and fiction. EXPLORING THE GENUINE FAKE with PATRICIA KINGORI (www.ndph.ox.ac.uk/team/patricia-kingori) is brought to you by the WELLCOME CENTRE FOR ETHICS & HUMANITIES at the UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD. Associate Professor PATRICIA KINGORI is Principal Investigator of a large WELLCOME TRUST funded project examining fakes, fabrications and falsehoods in health and medicine, including the concept of the ‘genuine fake’, the idea that something can be both real and fake at the same time. EXPLORING THE GENUINE FAKE was born out of a workshop at Somerville College, Oxford, in 2019, which brought together people from very different fields to discuss the ‘genuine fake’, some of the challenges and risks it can present, and how we can learn to navigate this minefield when it matters. FURTHER INFORMATION The WELLCOME CENTRE FOR ETHICS & HUMANITIES aims to lead debate on the ethical requirements for scientific research and technological innovation. www.weh.ox.ac.uk/ FAKES, FABRICATIONS & FALSEHOODS | PATRICIA KINGORI, Associate Professor in Global Health Ethics & Wellcome Senior Investigator www.ndph.ox.ac.uk/team/patricia-kingori MUSIC | Inquisitive Pizz - Jonathan Slatter (PRS) © Sounds Visual Music Ltd PRODUCTION | ChromeRadio for the WELLCOME CENTRE FOR ETHICS & HUMANITIES
