FilmMedicine Research Group

Description

The FilmMedicine Research Group are a group of creative research-by-practice makers, working across sound and vision, with key practitioners from Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, Health in Social Science, Veterinary Science, Psychology, Music and Film. They support projects and practitioners using creative tools with therapeutic goals or intent.

FilmMedicine is outward facing, and each project collaborates with the world beyond the Academy. They utilise new technology (immersive apps), traditional tools of documentary and music and explore interdisciplinary research on criteria for evidence and evaluation.

The breadth of input brings a fresh perspective and a greatly enhanced reach to health and well-being interventions. They draw support from the Wellcome Trust, Screen Scotland, broadcasters POV, Arte, YLE and BBC. The group welcomes staff and students from across the University of Edinburgh.
