Nonhuman Animals in the Medical Humanities Network (NAMHN)
Description
The Non-human Animal in the Medical Humanities Network (NAMHN) was founded in 2022. It is funded by the Wellcome Trust (2022-2024) through the support of the Northern Network for Medical Humanities Research (grant reference number: 224266/Z/21/Z). The NAMHN is a transdisciplinary research network that brings knowledges and practices from the medical humanities into conversation with animal studies. What would a science of the medical humanities in which the inclusion of non-human animals is no longer just a matter of multispecies care and medicine for humans, but also for non-human animals look like? What theoretical and methodological approaches would such a science require? The network's goal is to bring together scholars from diverse disciplines, artists, writers, practitioners, and activists to rethink and revive the role of non-human animals within the medical humanities.
