Professor Gomez’s work focuses on the history of knowledge, science, and the history of health and corporeality in Latin America, the Caribbean, the African diaspora and, more generally, the Iberian and Black Atlantic Worlds. His books include multiple-award winning The Experiential Caribbean: Creating Knowledge and Healing in the Early Modern Atlantic. His latest publication is an edited volume, The Gray Zones of Medicine, which examines the role of unlicensed health practitioners in the shaping of Latin American history. www.history.wisc.edu/people/gomez-pablo-f/
