Medical humanities and the grotesque is an academic journal that mainly covers disability, disease, and medical trauma in different media.

We are looking for:
- Critical essays
- Creative nonfiction
- Lyrical essays
- Short fiction or poetry
- Visual art, photography, or illustration
- Hybrid and experimental forms
Themes may include (but are not limited to):
- Disability and monstrosity
- The medical gaze
- Disfigurement and beauty
- Illness as performance
- The aesthetics of decay
- Freak shows and fashion
- Reclaiming the grotesque body
- Body horror, both real and imagined
