DESCRIPTION:This workshop brings together speakers and practitioners from
  several different disciplines – anthropology\, history of medicine\, vi
 sual culture studies\, cultural history\, and art—to consider the bodily
 \, medical\, and cultural meanings of trauma and repair.  Together we wi
 ll think about and discuss where the experience of injury\, especially t
 o the face\, and the practices of surgery intersect and interact.\n\nOur
  first session includes presentations by an anthropologist\, an artist\,
  and a historian of medicine who all work on faces\, trauma\, and medici
 ne.  After a coffee break\, our second session will feature keynote spea
 ker Dr Suzannah Biernoff\, Senior Lecturer in Modern and Contemporary Vi
 sual Culture at Birkbeck and author of the recent Portraits of Violence:
  War and the Aesthetics of Disfigurement)\, followed by a broad collecti
 ve discussion of the afternoon’s presentations and themes.\n\nWe particu
 larly encourage postgrads and early career researchers to attend.  An ar
 chivist from the John Rylands University Library will be available to di
 scuss recently catalogued holdings of interest to medical humanities sch
 olars\, teachers\, and practitioners.\n\nThe event is free to all\, but
