Vital Signs 2: Engaging Research Imaginations
Tuesday 7th - Thursday 9th September 2010
University of Manchester

Vital Signs 2 is an international, interdisciplinary conference organised by Realities, part of the ESRC National Centre for Research Methods, based at the University of Manchester.

How can we engage our research imaginations and rise to the challenge of generating knowledge that is vital and resonates with complex and multi-dimensional lived realities? Vital Signs 2 will provide a major forum for lively and engaged discussion of these issues.

Keynote speakers:

- David Inglis (Cultural Sociology, University of Aberdeen)
- Nigel Rapport (Anthropology/Philosophy, St Andrews University)
- Gillian Rose (Geography/Visual Culture, Open University)
- Jennifer Mason (Sociology, University of Manchester)
