Close
Thursdays 5-6.30pm
Online - Microsoft Teams (open for all)
Due to Covid safety restrictions, this term’s seminars will be ‘flipped’: Papers will be precirculated as a written paper and then the Q&A will be live, with some people participating online and others participating in the room at UCL (we will have two chairs to moderate the online and face-to-face discussions). Speakers will join us online from wherever they are. Please come to the seminar having read the paper and with questions for the presenter.
The online seminars will take place on Microsoft Teams and you can join the team here (once you join the team, go to the Medical Anthropology channel) to get access to all of the seminars and papers (under the Files tab).
