Eliot North, a GP, a medical tutor for Patient Centred Medicine at Newcastle University and a writer and Associate of the NCLA has set up a networking event to ‘Explore the Interface between Medicine/Health and the Arts/Humanities’ on 3rd of October 2013 The purpose of the meeting was to provide an opportunity for people from all 4 disciplines (Medicine, Health, Arts and Humanities) from an education, research or creative practice background to come together in a room to share ideas, make contacts and promote collaboration.

This was a Newcastle/Tyne and Wear based networking event but it will be expanded onto a yearly event perhaps with a wider the geographical remit. Please keep checking our website and the SciTalk project for updates.
