Centre for Health and Medical Humanities

Description

Launched in 2022, the Centre for Health and Medical Humanities (CHMH) brings together scholars who investigate the relationship of the arts and humanities to health, healthcare, medicine and medical education. Together they seek to create a space for transdisciplinary exchange to build shared knowledge, skills and capacity in the health and medical humanities.

Members’ research contributes to debates relating to historical, philosophical, artistic and interdisciplinary understandings of health and medicine across different cultures, contexts and languages. The Centre's scholarship aims to improve health and wellbeing, inform healthcare practice and training, and transform research through innovative and creative methods.
