DESCRIPTION:\n	This episode of Theorizing the Web Presents offers medical a
 nd experiential perspectives on two somatic phenomena: endometriosis and A
 SMR (autonomous sensory meridian response). Endometriosis is a medical dia
 gnosis\, but it is also understudied and poorly understood as a condition.
  In ''Hysterics' on the Web\,' Eileen Mary Holowka examines how people liv
 ing with endometriosis use social media to navigate and manage their exper
 ience of living with gendered chronic pain. Conversely\, current medical r
 esearch can neither diagnose nor explain the experience of ASMR. In 'ASMR 
 in the Clinic\,' Nitin K. Ahuja considers whether placebo studies can expl
 ain the therapeutic impact of clinically themed ASMR videos -- and what cl
 inicians can learn from such videos about delivering effective telemedicin
 e during a pandemic. The discussion is moderated by Theorizing the Web boa
 rd member Whitney Boesel. \n\n\n	Watch the recorded event.\n\n\n	Bios: \n
