Hi! I’m Professor of Rhetoric in the English Department at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University). My research is in rhetoric of science, medicine, and health and in health humanities.

You can email me derkatch@torontomu.ca. If bluster is more your thing, you can find me on Twitter (though I’ve mostly abandoned that site).

I’m not currently taking new graduate students, though I may consider projects that are close to my own current research interests (rhetorics of wellness, natural health, and transcendence). If you are interested in working in these areas, please get in touch.
