Step into the crip time warp with Élaina, Professor Felicity Callard, and Dr Mich Ciurria to discuss how we create knowledge of, about, and on illness. We discuss the “non-binary” category of illness, academic fantasies about research co-production, and why disabled people should be the ones who define disability. Everyone on this episode is a disabled academic with various levels of job security, all of whom made the gamble to be extremely vulnerable. I entrust them in your care.
