2017 Scholar Benjamin Gagnon Chainey has co-organized an international study day of Hervé Guibert, a multidisciplinary writer who died in 1991.

Almost 30 years after his death, Hervé Guibert who was HIV-positive is one of the central authors of Benjamin Gagnon Chainey’s doctoral research that looks at the relationship between literature, sexual and cultural identities, and the practice of care and medicine.

This study day will bring together a community of intellectuals, writers, and researchers specializing in Guibert's work including renowned Montreal hematologist, Dr. Jean-Pierre Routy of the MUHC.

The free event takes place on September 16th, 2019 at the University of Montreal.
