Wellcome Trust's Medical Humanities, Research Resources and Society and Ethics Roadshow
1.30 - 4.45, Monday 16 June at University of Manchester
Michael Smith Lecture Theatre (Building 71 on map available at http://www.manchester.ac.uk/aboutus/travel/maps/ )
This afternoon event will showcase the expansion of the Wellcome Trust's Medical Humanities, Research Resources and Society and Ethics funding streams, now open to a wider range of applications from the humanities, the social sciences and the arts.
The Medical Humanities stream encourages bold and intellectually rigorous research applications that address important questions at the interface of medicine, health-related sciences, and the wider humanities, including the arts and social sciences.
The Research Resources stream underpins research across the medical humanities and the social sciences by supporting cataloguing and preservation projects of significant primary source material in libraries and archives in the UK and Ireland.
The Society and Ethics stream supports research that examines the social and ethical aspects of biomedical research and health, with the aim of addressing tractable, real-world problems.
Opportunities will be available for one-on-one 'surgeries' to discuss individual projects with Trust staff. Each slot will be 15 minutes and will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
Who should attend? Academics and clinicians with interests spanning the humanities and social sciences, and library, archives, and museum professionals.
Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
