About Panacea
We are starting an online newsletter for and by our community of patients, providers, caregivers and beyond. We highlight news, columns, features, opinions, and creative works from this rich community of diverse backgrounds. Topics don’t have to be directly related to health, but they do have to come from our community.
We hope to provide an open space for expression of thoughts and new ideas. We invite you to submit non-fiction, fiction, op-eds, and anything else showcasing your creativity to panaceasubstack@gmail.com.
We are Bryant Lin (Stanford Physician), Ellen Zhang (Internal Medicine Resident), Chloe Sales (Medical Student), Alyssa Sales (Health Policy Analyst), and Ray Zhang (Undergraduate Student).
Our writers and editors come from across the world. We appreciate the administrative and marketing support from the Stanford Medical Humanities and Arts Program.
We welcome you to this new venue, and hope you enjoy the journey.
Follow us on Twitter: @PanaceaSubstack.
Importantly, this Substack is a platform for creative expression and NOT a source of medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always speak to your doctor or healthcare team if you have questions about your health.
We also adhere to all HIPAA guidelines for patient privacy. Authors/contributors are responsible for ensuring that their submitted and published pieces are adherent with HIPAA guidelines. This includes changing, fictionalizing, and/or omitting identifying information, as well as obtaining patient consent when possible.
