[csaa-forum] Australasian Health and Medical Humanities inaugural symposium June 3

[Elizabeth Stephens]

We are delighted to celebrate the launch of the new Australasian Health and Medical Humanities Network with an online symposium on June 3, from 2-4 pm AEST. The symposium will be chaired by Network founder and convenor Associate Professor Elizabeth Stephens (UQ).



The symposium will begin with the inaugural Australasian Health and Medical Humanities Network lecture by Professor Catherine Mills (Director of the Monash Bioethics Centre, Monash University), on “Experimenting on future children: Early adopters and the ethics of technology innovation in human reproduction.”



This will be followed by a panel on some key programs in the health and medical humanities in Australia by Dr Claire Hooker (Sydney; founder and convenor of the Arts Health Network NSW); Dr Keren Hammerschlag (ANU, founder and convenor of the Visual Medical Humanities network); and Professor Sandra Carr (UWA, founder and convenor of the undergraduate major in Humanities for Health and Medicine). Dr Karin Sellberg (founder and convenor of the UQ Medical Humanities network) will provide a response.
