New article on endometriosis

New publication on endometriosis by the GenDis team

GenDis researchers Elina Helosvuori and Venla Oikkonen have published a new article “Sensing pain: Embodied knowledge in endometriosis“. The article examines how people with endometriosis draw on their embodied experiences of different types of pain to manage the illness. It’s the first article in the project that focuses on the interviews we have conducted with people living with endometriosis in Finland. A warm thank you to our interlocutors for sharing their thoughts and experiences!
