Lund University offers plenty of interdisciplinary research. Pufendorf IAS' popular discussion forum, cleverly disguised as After Work, taps (pun intended) right into this: A couple of times per semester, we offer a space for informal meetings across all discipline- and faculty boundaries: by researchers for researchers.

Virtual Reality - so "hot" just a few years ago, nowadays used in so many areas. But did you know that VR is also used within the heath care sector, as "an instrument of good"? Welcome to an hour where you'll listen to hands-on health care experiences and research projects that will raise your eyebrows. 

This time, we have invited the following friends:
Associate professor Anders Rasmussen, research team manager for Associative Learning
Associate professor Johan Mårtensson, head of office for Logopedics, Phoniatrics and Audiology and active researcher at Birgit Rausing Centre for Medical Humanities (BRCMH) and 
Fanny Köhler Alvén, nurse at Lund University Hospital, the Childrens' hospital, who frequently uses Virtual Reality as a way to lessen both fear and pain before surgeries. 

Bring a friend and/or colleague and join us over refreshments. No registration necessary.
