But what might medicine contribute to poetry, beyond \"subject matter\"? Through enactive metaphors specific to medicine, medicine can bring body to words, and specific context to abstractions. But medicine and poetry are co-embroiled in life itself. This article first discusses the instrumentalism governing the use of poetry in medical education. Then it uses metaphor theory and the Kristevan concept of translationality to consider what medicine can do for poetry. Finally, the article considers the complex exchange between poetry and medicine in professional and educative contexts, illustrating these ideas through an examination of the uses of poetry in the first year of publication of the Canadian Medical Association Journal.</p>","PeriodicalId":54627,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives in Biology and Medicine","volume":"68 1","pages":"70-86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143588284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By close-reading autobiographical comics digitally posted by Pina Varnel (ADHD Alien), Dani Donovan, Heidi Burton, and Cecil, the article studies key elements of ADHD time perception, including time blindness, the now/not now dichotomy, the waiting mode, and the state of hyperfocus. ADHDers' perception of time is nonlinear and present-oriented, diverging from neuronormative temporal expectations. In visualizing the nuanced differences in temporal perception and their impact on ADHD self, the article contributes to the discussion of diverse ways of perceiving and interacting with the world. By recognizing these differences, the article aligns with the neurodiversity paradigm and calls for understanding ADHD as a way of being, breaking the vicious cycle of moral judgments and assumptions of intentionality on the basis of invisible but legitimate differences in temporal perception.</p>","PeriodicalId":54627,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives in Biology and Medicine","volume":"68 1","pages":"117-138"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143588270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on bioethics scholarship, empirical data, and their personal experiences and observations, the authors analyze a common set of burdens that a health-care organization will expect to hand off to a family caregiver as part of the discharge process. These burdens are co-produced by a patient's illness, clinical decision-making processes, the limits of public and private health insurers, and collective failures of imagination concerning how the care needs of aging societies can be met more fairly.

While research exists on organizational accountability in health care, little explores how Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) frameworks might transform health-care delivery toward justice and equity. This article examines how four BIPOC philosophical frameworks-right relations, Seven Generations, calling in versus calling out, and Emergent Strategy-can reimagine organizational accountability to advance health equity. The authors' findings reveal that combining BIPOC accountability frameworks with structural reforms in payment and care delivery systems enables health-care organizations to center relationship-building and long-term community impact. Concrete organizational examples demonstrate successful implementation of these principles through initiatives like the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Advancing Health Equity program, while personal narratives illustrate their transformative potential in patient care. This work provides practical pathways for health-care organizations to move beyond punishment toward accountability models that prioritize immediate holistic care needs, health equity, and generational community well-being, fostering healing and justice.</p>","PeriodicalId":54627,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives in Biology and Medicine","volume":"68 2","pages":"209-228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144250907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Individual institutions were unprepared for a crisis of the scale and severity of the pandemic, and they faced a myriad of ethical questions that required expertise and experience. The pandemic also revealed the fundamental need for local, state, and regional collaboration during times of resource scarcity. As individual institutions scrambled to organize and implement strategies for dealing with scarcity in a way that was both effective and fair, the lack of a regional or national system to organize those efforts impaired a timely response and resulted in duplicated efforts and differing approaches. This article describes the authors' pediatric institutional response to the pandemic within the context of a broader cooperative statewide approach. The authors explain the rationale for starting with a utilitarian framework and the ways in which its shortcomings were addressed. The structures and approaches described continue to be utilized and modified for other situations that lead to resource scarcity of all kinds. Although changes at the national level to create a national response would be ideal, collaboration and investment at the state and regional level is both critical and pragmatic in ensuring that all patients can access the health care they need.</p>","PeriodicalId":54627,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives in Biology and Medicine","volume":"68 2","pages":"326-336"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144250908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This essay contemplates the role of a system-level ethics committee in supporting organizational efforts toward justice, drawing on the author's experiences leading ethics efforts at Beth Israel Medical Deaconess Medical Center and now developing a system-level ethics committee for the broader Beth Israel Lahey Health system. Although the author's experiences largely demonstrate the rich potential for a grassroots, bottom-up approach centered around individual employee initiative to create a justice-oriented organizational ethic, there is also a benefit to top-down support from the organization's leadership to formalize and articulate the mission and values that should drive the actions of the organization and its individual employees. Arguing that neither a bottom-up nor top-down approach is independently sufficient, the essay suggests a combined approach to further the organization's mission and, in particular, health-care justice.

Practices such as patient and family advisory boards, community-based participatory research, patient-centered research, and public deliberation are becoming commonplace. The appeal of public participation turns on a number of purported benefits, including the potential for more inclusive and transparent decision-making, equitable interventions and outcomes, and public trust in institutions. Considerable conceptual work has refined definitions and frameworks of participatory processes, and ample experimentation is underway. Yet participation remains an ambiguous concept and highly variable in practice. Drawing on the authors' collective experiences in life and work, this article clarifies what participatory processes are, describes how they might support varied goals of justice, and identifies opportunities and considerations for their use in health-care organizations.

Medical students and residents routinely delivered babies in patients' homes, often without adequate supervision. This aspect of the center's history can help illustrate the evolution of experiential education in clinical medicine, along with emerging concepts of equitable access and quality of care. This work explores the center's role in medical education in light of contemporary perceptions of some participants-trainees, faculty, and institutional leadership-and through analysis of scholarly and popular publications, institutional archives, and communications with alumni and retired faculty. The popularity of the experience with trainees and its constituents, segregation of the center's activities from those of the sponsoring medical center, and its well-respected history led to the persistence of a model for clinical medical education that was an anachronistic remnant of earlier approaches to education and to care for the poor and disenfranchised.</p>","PeriodicalId":54627,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives in Biology and Medicine","volume":"68 3","pages":"427-443"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145014489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
