<br><font size=3> We are excited to announce that Adele E. Clarke,
Professor of Sociology and Adjunct Professor of History of Health Sciences
at the University of California San Francisco, will be visiting the University
of Sydney in July 2009. Trained by Anselm Strauss, Professor Clarke has
been using and teaching grounded theory since 1980. She is also well-known
for her social, cultural, and historical studies of science, technology,
and medicine, including work on biomedicalization and on common medical
technologies pertinent to women's health such as contraception and the
Pap smear. </font>
<p><font size=3>During her visit, Professor Clarke will be teaching a 1-day
introductory workshop (July 20th) and a 1-day Master Class (July 21st)
on Situational Analysis, her innovative methodological development of the
grounded theory tradition. Numbers for these events are strictly limited.
</font>

on July 23rd entitled "From the Rise of Medicine to Biomedicalization:
U.S. Healthscapes c1890-Present with Global Implications," with introduction
