With the start of the new academic year, it is now also time for Medical Anthropology Young Scholars (MAYS) to find its new co-coordinator! After 2 fruitful years of helping the network grow, Simona Maisano is moving on and we are seeking someone who can take over her role as one of MAYS’ co-coordinators.
