At Edinburgh Centre for Medical Anthropology
Student Medical Anthropology Conference
Edinburgh Centre for Medical Anthropology
First week of May 2026
After the success of last year’s conference, the Students of Medical Anthropology at the University of Edinburgh will be holding our annual student-focussed event in the first week of May 2026. With the rise of AI technology and the realities of living in the information age, this year we are calling for all things Technocene. This could be digital ethnographies, using digital tools to improve public access to research, a thought piece on the place of anthropology in the current world, etc.
Students can get involved by simply attending, a 3–5 minute lightning talk or a longer presentation about their interest/research, or getting involved in planning a workshop. It’ll be a great opportunity for students (and staff!) to network and hear about one another’s research. Please use this attached form to register your interest, and any further updates will be sent via email. Registration will be open until Monday 16th March.
