'Theories and Methods: Literature, Science and Medicine'

The Wellcome Library is a participant in an Arts & Humanities Research Council (AHRC) doctoral training programme 'Theories and Methods: Literature, Science and Medicine', which is running from 2009-2011.

The second event in this programme will take place from 25-27th March at the Wellcome Library, King's College, London, and the Royal College of Surgeons.

There will be 20 places for this event awarded to doctoral students, with also bursaries for accommodation and travel. Applications for this event must be submitted by Monday 1st February.

More details on the Literature, Science and Medicine programme are available from their website, including more detailed information on the Wellcome, Kings College and Royal College of Surgeons event.

Also of interest is LitSciMed’s flourishing social space, which includes details on the first event of the programme, held at St Deniol’s Library in January, along with discussion topics accompanying the training programme, plus blog postings, films of lectures, audio recordings and other learning resources for students working on topics that combine literature, science and medicine.
