One person who had a front-row seat for this transformation was Wendy Li, a PhD candidate in #sociology at #UWisconsin, who served in the USTR's office from 2015-17, and who leveraged her contacts among officials and lobbyists (and ex-lobbyists turned officials and vice-versa) to produce a fascinating, ethnographic account of a very specific form of #RegulatoryCapture.

#ADRCs (there are 33 Alzheimer's Disease Research Centers in the US) do amazing scientific and clinical work. Many have extraordinary outreach programs. #neurologist Bruce Miller of #UCSF and I have had a chance to talk about our #litstudies and #medhum collaboration with #UWisconsin. Most recently we spoke at #UMich. Here is a youtube link to our presentation. We talked about #stigma, representations of #dementia, #empathy, #grief, #caregiving, et al. #EndAlz.
