The Institute was delighted to host a gathering for IMH Fellows on July 2.
Following on from our introductory session in February, this event was an opportunity for Fellows to learn more about the research taking place across our diverse medical humanities community. Five Fellows gave ‘lightning presentations’ (short, five-minute talks) on their work, covering everything from embodied identities to everyday environments, climate and spaces of health.
The session also included discussions of the shared research themes that seem to be emerging and the types of events that would be most useful to Fellows in the future.
We are grateful for the contributions of all who attended and look forward to continuing our ongoing engagement with the Fellows.
Who are the IMH Fellows?
We use the term 'fellow' both in its academic designation and in the earlier sense of being 'a companion, an associate, a comrade.' IMH Fellows are active members of the IMH community, who share our vision to develop, champion and extend the contribution of the humanities and social sciences to health.
