  • Summary

  • 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. MoRF is an exciting collaboration between ETHOX (www.ethox.ox.ac.uk) and award-winning visual and conceptual artist AL HOPWOOD (www.arhopwood.com/morf), with support from TORCH, THE OXFORD RESEARCH CENTRE IN THE HUMANITIES (www.torch.ox.ac.uk). MUSIC: Bela Bartok, Sonata for Solo Violin, BB 124: Fuga, performed by Gyorgy Pauk, and licensed courtesy of Naxos Music UK. PODCAST COVER: Al Hopwood (www.arhopwood.com/morf)
