For social scientists, ‘public health’ may at any given time mark at once an institutional context they belong to, a domain of enquiry in which they engage, and an area of sociality that they are inevitably caught up in like everyone else, simply as a member of ‘the public’. 

The symposium aims to critically explore this triple dimension and to provide a space for recovering the notion of ‘enacting social science within public health’ as in itself a legitimate social-scientific topic. 

Open to all. Early career researchers and PhD students especially welcome.
