Ethnographies of disease stratification: Understanding novel clinical practices and their social consequences in contemporary cancer care
Friday 12th April 2019
Department of Social Anthropology, University of Cambridge
This one day symposium will bring together academics from a range of disciplines to discuss how contemporary oncology is becoming reconfigured by the technoscientific promise of improved health outcomes for those affected by cancer.
We invite abstract submissions from early career social scientists using ethnographic approaches to understand the impacts of stratification in cancer research and treatment for patient experiences of illness and care.
The symposium will facilitate networking and debate, and feature contributions from senior academics working in the field.
Submission deadline: Please send your abstract (max 300 words) and a short biography (100 words) to Ignacia Arteaga at [log in to unmask] by 31st January 2019.
Financial support: Thanks to the generous support from the Foundation for the Sociology of Health & Illness, bursaries are available to support travel costs of presenters.
