Hi everyone,

An important notification, the *First Monday STSS Reading Group* will be at
a new time this spring: *12:30 -1:25 pm. *Join us for your (online) lunch!

Our next host is anthropologist *Lisa Hoffman*, Professor of Urban Studies
at UW Tacoma.  Lisa Hoffman chose an article that begins with a shooting
squad. "I am alive, No, you are dead." But the piece, by Stanford professor
Lochlain Jain, is on how *prognosis* -- you have cancer -- alters the
representational space for people living and dying with/of cancer. Looking
forward to a rich discussion led by Lisa that brings this short essay by an
award-winning anthropologist of medicine and law into conversation with our
STS-curious group.

Please email me to get an invitation to join the meeting, which is Monday,
April 7, 2025 at 12:30-1:25; below you can access the pdf.
