“Cultures of Shame in Medicine: An Interdisciplinary Workshop” is the third workshop organized by the Wellcome Trust Seed Funded ‘Shame and Medicine Project’.
The aim of this Workshop is to bring together a number of academics working from various disciplinary perspectives within Humanities (e.g. English, History, Visual Culture) in order to reflect on how shame dynamics permeate medical culture and practice.
The workshop will consist of five talks covering diverse topics such as mesothelioma, HIV, surgeon experience and patient narratives. The Workshop takes place on Tuesday 19th September 2017, from 9am – 2pm, in the Trinity Long Room Hub, Trinity College Dublin. Full details of the programme can be found on the project’s website.
