DESCRIPTION:This lecture has been postponed until further notice. Thank you
  for your patience.\n\nToday's opiate epidemic in the United States has sp
 arked a lively debate. Should we enact steeper penalties for dealers? Rest
 rict doctors' prescribing power? Often overlooked in these discussions are
  the medical needs of patients in pain and the clinicians they turn to for
  relief. This talk explores the history of pain management in the US\, inc
 luding patients and medical providers caught in the crossfire of political
  debates.\n\nAbout Andrea Tone\n\nA historian by training\, Andrea Tone’s 
 scholarship on medicine reflects her commitment to interdisciplinary and p
 ublic history. Working with archives\, museums\, and professional societie
 s\, she has strived to make research accessible to audiences beyond academ
 ia. Her five books include Devices and Desires\, which inspired an Emmy-aw
 ard winning PBS documentary and was named one of the best books of the yea
 r by the Washington Post. Her research has been featured on CBC\, NPR\, an
 d other mediums. In 2011\, she was awarded the APA’s Benjamin Rush Award f
 or contributions to the history of psychiatry. In 2017\, she was elected t
 o the Royal Society of Canada.\n\nProfessor Tone’s research interests expl
 ore twentieth-century American medical history\, particularly the historie
 s of gender\, sexuality\, psychiatry\, pharmacology\, and epistemology. A 
 transcendent theme is the intersection of patient experience and instituti
 onal power\, a frame that integrates politics into the study of the social
 . She is completing a monograph on the CIA and Cold War Psychiatry funded\
 , in part\, by an Open Operating Grant from the Canadian Institutes of Hea
 lth Research. She is also researching the history of female sexuality befo
 re FSD\, the medicalization of beauty\, and women’s encounters with pregna
 ncy\, pharmacology\, and pathology from the 1950s to the present.\n
