Biomedical Entanglements is an ethnographic study of the Giri
people of Papua New Guinea, focusing on the indigenous population's
interaction with modern medicine. In her fieldwork, Franziska A.
Herbst follows the Giri people as they circulate within and around
ethnographic sites that include a rural health center and an urban
hospital. The study bridges medical anthropology and global health,
exploring how the 'biomedical' is imbued with social meaning and
how biomedicine affects Giri ways of life.
