Biopoetics of Grief: SWYPFT Research Generator

Are you interested in one or more of following research areas?

• Bereavement and grief
• Child loss
• The power of poetry and writing in contexts of bereavement
• Use of poetry in community settings
• Care and support in bereavement

We would like to invite you to join a research development conversation on 21st April at IMH Atrium, 2 to 4pm.

Our partners at South West Yorkshire NHS Trust are developing a proposal for Wellcome with partners from Southampton University, University of Cape Town, Brazil and Japan and would very much like to enhance the Humanities and Social Science perspectives in the proposal.  

We would like to invite colleagues with connected interests to join us for this research discussion, to explore the different insights, questions and approaches from the Humanities and Social Sciences that could be explored in this proposal.

We believe that the topics will have particular resonance for IMH Themes:

As well as the DRP-MH Affective Experience Lab.

The discussion would also very much benefit from insights from our colleagues in the Centre for the Anthropology of Health.

If you would be interested in taking part in this discussion (even if you are not free on this date and time!) please could you complete this very brief Microsoft form indicating your availability and connected research interests.
