The promise and peril of truth-telling and critical historical studies of Australian universities ‘History is written by the victors’
Using Community Engagement to Move Upstream to Address Social Determinants of Health
Given its role as a safety net institution, the University of Florida Health (UF Health) Jacksonville has responded to the community’s needs through partnerships with the community for decades. Such academic-community partnerships have a broad emphasis on population health and primary care that expands the model of care to include community engagement, which allows such partnerships to promote health and well-being and reduce health inequalities …
Providing telemedicine services to persons living with HIV in an urban community
Although HIV incidence and mortality rates have declined over the past 20 years, HIV health disparities continue to persist among patients living in urban communities. Barriers to proficient health outcomes for persons with HIV (PWH) in urban communities include lack of access to care, resulting from limited transportation or clinic availability. While healthcare systems in rural communities provide telemedicine (TM) services to PWH to eliminate …
An exploratory study on the sociocultural consequences of food consumption patterns among African American girls
Two Australian Fetuses
A close analysis of two fetal specimens is used to explore of role of material specimens in anatomical practice of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the significance of Indigenous bodies in that era’s quest for an understanding of human difference, and the postcolonial legacies of the global project of creating collections of human specimens
Living labs and co-production
Living labs and co-production are increasingly popular strategies for universities to address sustainability challenges and yet the links between them remain largely implicit. This paper discusses the potential of living labs to provide a holistic and iterative framework for the co-production of knowledge. The University Living Lab initiative was launched in 2012 to transform the University of Manchester campus into a site for applied teaching an…
Wandering anatomists and itinerant anthropologists
While the British Empire conventionally is recognized as a source of research subjects and objects in anthropology, and a site where anthropological expertise might inform public administration, the settler-colonial affiliations and experiences of many leading physical anthropologists could also directly shape theories of human variation, both physical and cultural. Antipodean anthropologists like Grafton Elliot Smith were pre-adapted to diffusio…
Macaws, Elephants and Mahouts
In 1926 the anatomist Frederic Wood Jones toured the United States at the invitation of the Rockefeller Foundation. In 1924 the Foundation had set up a Division of Studies under the leadership of Edwin Embree with the brief to fund programmes under the title of 'Human Biology'. Grafton Elliot Smith's Rockefeller-funded Institute of Anatomy based at University College London wished to be designated at the centre of the programme and was well place…
Removing Some of the Dust from the Wheels of Civilization
Historians of the eugenics movement in Australia in the first half of the twentieth century have failed to provide an adequate explanation for its place and relative importance both within public policy planning and more generally in the zeitgeist. This article argues for a new approach, characterising eugenics as a science or technology being utilised on occasions for the more fundamental and time-honoured task of the elimination of racial degen…
