I am sharing the enthusiasm of being in the intensive course of Narrative Medicine, here at the Institute of Bioethics of the Catholic University of Porto, in Portugal. This is a body of knowledge that values and instrumentalizes narratives and communicational practices between those who suffer and those who help. The doctor develops not only the techniques, but the sensitivity…
Our “brand” is in transition, adapting to the times, like anything else that’s alive and breathing. The “backstage” now becomes a protagonist: the “Ethics of the Encounter” is taking on my role, my name and all of my “inheritance” from 35 years of studying and becoming Morgana Masetti. Far from the ego, this change carries a purpose: a strategy for…
I enthusiastically accepted the invitation to participate in @tedxniteroi which, on 12/18, discussed the theme of “UNFORESEEABLE. Transforming the future.” There, we reflected on the unpredictability under the umbrella of health; improvisation as a source of grace; the power that vulnerability exerts on us.

It is with great pleasure and joy that “Voices Projects – narratives about health”, our YouTube channel, will bring together collaborative stories from many (former) patients about their hospital experiences. The idea…
How can we create a narrative opportunity for multiple languages to discuss health processes? In the terrain where patients walk in hospitals, their rooms full of equipment and technology that witness these silent experiences. In general, what is narrated by the patient will have a place of scientific record that will be rearticulated within an organized medical expression plan.
This is the text from a life that goes on. After 34 years researching health processes and the impact of the relationships between the professionals and patients in health development, on February 1, 2017 life led me to intensely experience these issues in the skin of a patient.
