Fantastic new article from @gemma_nourse. Her highly innovative research examines the relationship between gender and notions of optimisation as they take shape in health promotion materials on performance and image-enhancing drugs.
Read the DruGS team's latest article, drawn from @gemma_nourse's PhD thesis on performance and image-enhancing drugs (PIEDs). It examines health promotion materials on PIEDs, arguing that conceptions of health and masculinity are being refigured through men's use of these drugs.
