This book integrates insights from dialogic theory and systemic
functional linguistics (SFL) to extend our understandings of
engagement in medical research articles, going beyond notions of
the role of verbal dialogue to encompass mathematical and visual
semiotics and consider text not just as language but as
multisemiosis. The volume begins by outlining the engagement
framework and offering a brief overview of historical developments
in medical research discourse. This discussion culminates in the
introduction of the corpus used for analysis, drawing on original
research articles from key medical journals to explore verbal,
mathematical, and visual engagement in turn. A subsequent chapter
brings these perspectives together to demonstrate intersemiotic
engagement across different stages and phases of the medical
research article and how such resources work together to construe
and maintain the authoritative position commonly associated with
medical discourse. The book looks ahead to engagement in other
related disciplinary fields and future directions for work on
multisemiosis and medical research discourse more generally. This
book will be of particular interest to graduate students and
researchers in multimodality, critical discourse analysis, applied
linguistics, SFL, and science education. The Open Access version of
