“From wonderkid to Billy Elliott to a world class academic” - The importance of narrative in understanding and researching the adolescent mental health.
This award-winning presentation starts as a narrative of a young footballer growing up in the late 1980’s-early 1990’s, in the North East of England. It outlines the highs and lows of a footballer that didn’t quite ‘make it’, with reflection on how the effects of isolation, rejection and failure contributed to, and escalated to almost two decades of undiagnosed mental illness.

Movement, dance and embodied syntax - Workshop
The purpose of this informal interdisciplinary workshop is to bring together academics and performers with interests in how the human capacity for combining elements into complex sequences underpins and is manifested in movement. Through the collaboration of the sciences, the humanities and the arts, we will explore the concept of ‘embodied syntax’ – the bodily manifestations of a more general cognitive and sensory-motor capacity that is distinctively human. We see dance as a prime example
