Discover the stories of four people who lived with disabilities in Scotland and England between 500 and 1600 years ago\, presented through immersive display stations. Created in collaboration with University of St Andrews researchers\, History in Our Bones invites visitors to rethink how disability\, community and contribution have always gone hand in hand. \nFri\, 26/06/2026 – Sun\, 24/01/2027 | Free | The McManus: Dundee’s Art Gallery & Museum

SUMMARY:Workshop/Symposium: Health\, Welfare\, and Mutual Support in Maritime Communities\, 1550 – 1850
DESCRIPTION:A one-day workshop/symposium on 14 January 2027 at the National Maritime Museum\, focusing on the disciplinary crossroads between medical\, social\, and maritime history. \nThe focus of this one-day workshop/symposium on 14 January 2027 at the National Maritime Museum is the disciplinary crossroads between medical\, social\, and maritime history. We aim to bring researchers interested in these fields together to present research and create connections across an area of emergent research. \nMuch traditional scholarship on maritime healthcare has focused on the Navy\, hospitals\, and elite medical practitioners\, imagining the establishment of permanent naval hospitals as the positive conclusion of inevitable progress. \nRecent scholarship has challenged this narrative\, emphasising the partial and socially restrictive aspects of increasingly institutionalised systems of maritime health care. Medical humanities have increasingly incorporated approaches of social history\, but this has only recently begun to address the specific histories and concerns of maritime communities. \nOverview of the workshop\nThis workshop aims to place naval and institutional medical care within a broader context of informal healthcare and mutual support within maritime communities\, informing and encouraging future research in this developing field. \nWe conceive ‘maritime communities’ to include not only mariners working in the Navy or commercial shipping\, but also those working in shipbuilding and other maritime industries on land\, as well as their related familial and social networks. \nWe invite researchers to share work on these topics ranging from the early modern period onwards (approximately 1550-1850). Specific themes are listed below\, and we welcome submissions on all areas connected to the broader themes of the event. \nHosted by the National Maritime Museum\, the workshop will include opportunities for focused discussion in a number of panels. We anticipate that the event will provide opportunities to develop an ongoing network of researchers working in this emerging field. \nThanks to the generosity and support of the Collaborative Doctoral Partnership scheme and National Maritime Museum\, there will be no registration fee for this event. \nLimited financial support for speakers is available; details will be provided upon acceptance.
