Sally Frampton

Dr Sally Frampton is the Humanities and Healthcare Fellow. Sally is keen to build up a network of medical and healthcare humanities researchers at the University, with an emphasis on fostering interdisciplinary collaborations between those in the humanities and those in medical sciences and healthcare. She would be interested to hear from researchers pursuing work in this area. Her own academic training and background is in the history of medicine, health and illness from 1750 to the present, and she has worked on a number of interdisciplinary medical humanities projects at the University of Oxford, including Constructing Scientific Communities (https://conscicom.org/) and Diseases of Modern Life (https://diseasesofmodernlife.org/. Sally has particular interests in surgery and first aid, changing understandings of medical innovation, and the relationship between health, medicine and the media. She is also interested in the development of new and creative public engagement resources based on humanities research.
