Intersex activist Emi Koyama made an appearance at the University of Chicago on May 11 to discuss a controversy within the community regarding new medical terminology.

Koyama is director of the Intersex Initiative in Portland, Ore. In her presentation, "Intersex at the Intersection of Queer Theory and Disability," Koyama not only provided the basics, but also discussed the debate surrounding the recent introduction of the new medical terminology "disorder of sex development ( DSD ) " to replace the term "intersex."
