We are delighted to announce an international, interdisciplinary intensive care research summer school, 6-9 September 2010, The University of Edinburgh.
The ICU summer school
An increasing number of patients are surviving an episode of critical illness that requires intensive care (ICU) treatment. Recovering from critical illness is a long-term process and ICU survivors and their families face many challenges after critical illness. A number of disciplines have an interest in critical illness and recovery and research collaborations across disciplines have the potential to improve health care practices, and inform social science theory and methodological developments.
This international and multidisciplinary summer school aims to:
• Build international collaboration
• Create networks of early career and senior researchers
• And provide high quality methods teaching opportunities.
Who should attend?
The summer school is aimed at international early career, doctoral (2 year onwards) and postdoctoral researchers from both social science and practice based health care. An early career researcher is defined as a person who has held an MPhil, MD or PhD degree not longer than 5 years.
