Through their fight for relief, Kempner reveals a sweeping history of psychedelics and pain research, a window into the early years of the so-called “psychedelic renaissance,” and an indictment of the rules and regulations meant to safeguard biomedicine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/600e15fe0eec4a7d05112ee6/1612830413246-8WBI7ZQ6OKF458RZICPC/Not%2BTonight%2Bbook%2Bcover.jpg Joanna Kempner, PhD - Not Tonight won multiple awards for its exploration of how stigma and gender bias shape the treatment of pain. https://www.joannakempner.com/new-page-1 daily 0.75 2021-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/600e15fe0eec4a7d05112ee6/1612662506210-4AMAL7T6KPYJMO55M6TA/501.jpg Not Tonight https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/600e15fe0eec4a7d05112ee6/1612830413246-8WBI7ZQ6OKF458RZICPC/Not%2BTonight%2Bbook%2Bcover.jpg Not Tonight https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/600e15fe0eec4a7d05112ee6/1611865666640-LFYF0TW5WPWJJ7LWL94C/Not%2BTonight_Friedson.jpg Not Tonight - Winner of the 2016 American Sociological Association’s Medical Sociology Section’s Eliot Freidson Outstanding Publication Award Best Book Award https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/600e15fe0eec4a7d05112ee6/1611865703716-NCO8JGSDWVV7XYYRFYZZ/Not+Tonight_SMA+Award.jpg Not Tonight - Winner of the 2016 Society for Medical Anthropology’s Eileen Basker Memorial Prize For Not Tonight’s Contribution to Gender & Health https://www.joannakempner.com/articles daily 0.75 2025-03-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/600e15fe0eec4a7d05112ee6/1612458398860-EBRJV2BX7LUAPUBXDOWL/Golgi_1885_Plate_XXIII.jpg Articles https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/600e15fe0eec4a7d05112ee6/4a30a3bb-68bb-41a3-8170-57ebefc6ca65/Jan-25.jpg Articles - The Pain Gap: Epistemic Justice in Psychedelic Ethics Kempner, J, Schindler EAD.

These patients know so much more about cluster headaches than their doctors. They're saving each other's lives. And they walk into that hospital and their future in a lot of ways depends on what these people decide and what they do. And that to me is so fascinating and problematic.
