Narrative Workshop IV: Narrative and Health
Thursday, November 14th, 10:00 5:00
King s College, Cambridge
The Centre for Narrative Research is organizing its fourth one-day workshop,
this time focussing on the relationship between narrative and health. The
workshop is primarily geared to post-graduate students working in narrative
research, but is also open to interested others at any stage in their
career.
The day-long event will focus on presentations from four researchers working
with narrative and health. The researchers will walk through one piece of
data, explaining how their data was gathered and their perceptions of
narrative analysis as it applies to their work. Trish Greenhalgh (University
College London), David Harper (University of East London), Catherine
Riessman (Boston University), and Vieda Skultans (Bristol University) will
be presenting, with Phil Salmon (Institute of Education) as discussant.
In addition to the four presentations, there will be considerable time for
the questions and comments of workshop participants. A portion of the
afternoon session will be conducted in small groups.
The workshop is limited to fifty participants. The deadline for
applications is October 1st. If there are remaining places after this date,
applications may still be considered. The cost for the workshop is #50, and
includes registration, morning coffee, light buffet lunch, and reception.
There are a small number of #25 bursaries available for graduate students.
Applications must be accompanied by a cheque or money order, made payable to
the University of East London.
If you would like more information on the workshop, please contact any of
the co-directors of the centre: Molly Andrews ([log in to unmask]), Corinne
Squire ([log in to unmask]) or Maria Tamboukou ([log in to unmask]).
