CHCS - Perspectives Summer/Fall 2017

College of Health Care Sciences 45 Muniz’s artwork portrays many physiologic processes and disease progressions medical students struggle to memorize. He is careful to portray illnesses without being offensive to patients who are afflicted with the disease. His artwork has warmed hearts and tickled funny bones across the medical community, including paramedics, nurses, physicians, and, of course, PAs. He is working on a new book and is excited to raise the bar in the way medical information is presented. The new project is an evolution of the techniques in medical cartooning Muniz has developed over the past several years. ● A Medcomic cartoon portrays the differences between paronychia and a felon. Medcomic combines original artwork and clinical pearls in text to make studying medical concepts fast and fun. Jorge Muniz
