Date: 11am-3pm, Friday 5th October 2018
Location: SGSAH Meeting Room, University of Glasgow
A new date has now been confirmed for the Scottish Medical Humanities Doctoral Research Network – Scoping Meeting, originally planned for the 7th March 2018. The scoping meeting was postponed in March due to planned industrial action. It will now take place on Friday 5th October 2018 from 11am-3pm in the SGSAH Meeting Room at the University of Glasgow.
The Scottish Graduate School for Arts and Humanities has released Cohort Development Funding to launch a Medical Humanities training network for PhD students. The aim of this scoping meeting is to develop a plan addressing training needs (eg. regarding postdoctoral funding, publishing opportunities, etc.). You do not need to be an SGSAH DTP student to attend. If you would like to attend, please email the MHRC administrator, Sarah Phelan at arts-medhums@glasgow.ac.uk. Places are limited, so interested PGRs will need to apply quickly. In your email, please state briefly:
• Your institutional affiliation and Subject area.
• Interest in the medical humanities (e.g. PhD topic).
• Estimated travel costs (if any).
• Any ONE training need for Scottish PhD students in medical humanities.
Please feel free to circulate this announcement widely.
