In her ERC project Beyond Thalidomide (BT), medical historian Birgit Nemec reconstructs the global rise in drug-induced disabilities in the second half of the twentieth century. Nemec develops a conceptual and methodological framework to examine the origins, development and consequences of prenatal drug use, physician-induced disabilities and reproductive health from the 1960s to the present day.
