Tips From the Editor

We welcome pieces that incorporate art, history, literature, or ethics in relation to health and medicine. We also welcome personal essays that reflect experiences as a patient, professional, or caregiver. In addition to a yearly essay contest, we publish new work on our website on a rolling basis.

Please explore the “Hektorama” section of our website for the categories of work that we publish. Essays should generally be 3,000 words or less.
