We will host two informal planning sessions for University of Iowa faculty and staff who are interested in next April's Health Humanities Working Symposium. (We are having two meetings in order to accommodate schedules.) If you would like to learn more, to participate in the event, or to meet colleagues working across these domains—from medical anthropologists and historians to poets writing about illness to public health workers, nurses, and doctors using narrative theory to better understand their patients' experience—we hope that you can join us for one of these pre-planning brainstorming sessions.  

To attend either session, please RSVP to Erin Hackathorn at erin-hackathorn@uiowa.edu, or call 335.4034.

Monday, October 7, 8:30-9:30 am

Thursday, October 10, 4:00-5:00 pm

Both sessions are at the Obermann Center, 111 Church Street. Metered street parking is available on the north end of Clinton Street.
