Being Human Festival

Beyond Bodies - Part of the Being Human Festival #beinghuman19

Our Beyond Bodies events in the Being Human Festival engage with how diverse, multiple and ‘normative’ bodies are imagined and situated in health, biomedicine and biotechnological developments. Based on an interdisciplinary programme of medical humanities research, we seek to explore how biomedical and biotechnological developments are shaped by and shape how we understand and engage with the idea of the body, and to consider the ethical, cultural, social and legal implications of these developments. 

Free events for all.
