"On balance: an interdisciplinary conference on notions of balance and stability in health and medicine" to be held on 12-13 May 2010 at the University of Exeter (360G-Wellcome-092050_Z_10_Z)

£5,331

The immediate aim of this conference is to bring together scholars from a range of disciplines in order to reflect on and interrogate the role of concepts such as balance and stability in debates about health and disease, both in historical and modern cultural terms. Our purpose is to include studies that relate to all periods and places, including Western and Eastern theories and treatments of disease and from ancient through to modern formulations of balance and health. As longer term goals, we intend both to publish the proceedings of the conference in some form and to develop an ambitious inter-disciplinary research programme on the medical, political and personal implications of the notion of balance within medicine.
