Towards a Chinese Medical Humanities: Film and the Body. (360G-Wellcome-103686_Z_14_Z)

£4,970

In the context of the UCL initiative for the creation of an ethnically Chinese Medical Humanities www.ucl.ac.uk/chinahealth, we propose a collaborative workshop (UCL China Centre for Health and Humanity [UCL CCHH], Peking University [PKU] Institute of Medical Humanities and King's College London [KCL]) to develop new topics for teaching. Building on the experience of an existing UCL CCHH course on Film and the Body taught together with experts across the three institutions, we will explore the p otential of film for speaking to the challenges of the discipline. The workshop anticipates a larger conference to be held across the institutions involved, looking at the future of the teaching of Medical Humanities in and about China and what it can contribute to the wider field. It is envisaged that the proceedings of both workshop and conference will generate publications and online open access teaching materials. Support is sought for the travel and accommodation of key contributors and fun ds are matched by both Peking University and UCL.
