Abstract

You’re warmly invited to attend one or more of the seminars in the new series Images of care and dying: thinking with screen media about palliative and end of life care.

The Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH), along with the University of Cambridge’s Departments of Public Health and Primary Care, and Modern and Medieval Languages, present a series of five seminars taking place in Cambridge in 2016 and 2017. The events will explore the difficult feelings and dilemmas presented by end of life care that are felt in the lived experiences of clinicians through multidisciplinary dialogues.

The first evening of the series will take place on Wednesday 26 October 2016 from 17:00 to 19:00 at the McCrum Lecture Theatre, Corpus Christi College. The seminar will feature Rev Dr Derek Fraser, Senior Chaplain at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, and Nicola Stockley, a BBC filmmaker whose film The Time to Die examines the experiences of those at a hospice.

Join us for an engaging and interactive discussion, as well as a screening of Ms Stockley’s film.
