Scholars have distinguished among sex, gender, and sexuality for decades, but the distinctions have always been contested, and have become more rather than less so in recent years. This talk will explore the changing relationships among these concepts with a special view to how they are used and what they can accomplish, and obscure, in medical research and practice. A Q&A session is to follow. Free event. Registration required.
