Research Seminars in the Research Centre for Culture and Health

The Research Centre for Culture and Health at the University of Turku is organising a research seminar programme for Autumn-Winter 2025.

The Centre explores the connections between culture, health, and illness from multidisciplinary perspectives: pedagogical, narrative, artistic, literary, philosophical, sociological, anthropological, historical, and many more!

Whether your research is in its early stages or already advanced, come and present in a relaxed and friendly environment. All welcome!

Seminars will be hybrid, held in Arcanum (University of Turku) and online, from 14:00-16:00 (EET) on Tuesdays (provisional dates: 9 September; 7 October; 4 November; 9 December).

If you are interested in giving a short presentation (15 minutes + 10 minutes Q&A) relating to your research, please get in touch. We are looking for 2-3 speakers per session and are also open to themed seminars.

We especially encourage motivated MA, PhD and early-career scholars to contact us.

If you would like to suggest a different day or time, or to present in Finnish, please get in touch and we will attempt to accommodate these requests.
