International and interdisciplinary intensive care research summer school
A patient’s journey through ICU and recovery: learning from different disciplinary approaches
An increasing number of patients are surviving an episode of critical
illness that requires intensive care (ICU) treatment. Recovering from
critical illness is a long-term process and ICU survivors and their families
face many challenges after critical illness. A number of disciplines have
an interest in critical illness and recovery and research collaborations
across disciplines have the potential to improve health care practices,
and inform social science theory and methodological developments.
This international and multidisciplinary summer school aims to:
• Build international collaboration
• Create networks of early career and senior researchers
• And provide high quality methods teaching opportunities.
The summer school is supported by a grant from the Economic and Social Science Research Council (ESRC).
