About the Sowerby Project

The Sowerby Project is a joint venture between King’s Department of Philosophy, Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine, and The Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery. Generously funded by the Peter Sowerby Foundation It works to promote all teaching, research and public engagement at the intersection of philosophy & medicine. This includes introducing philosophy into the curricula that train clinicians, hosting a range of public lectures and research activities to encourage dialogue and collaborative research across these disciplines, and training the next generations of teachers and researchers in this field.

We look forward to seeing you in London!
