CfA: International Conference "Popular Health and Social Media" (University of Siegen, 12-13 September 2024)

Dear colleagues,

We are happy to invite you to contribute to our international conference "Popular Health & Social Media", which will take place at the University of Siegen (Germany) on September 12 and 13, 2024. We seek to address this vast field by discussing three thematic areas: (1) self-tracking, with a special focus on the management of (chronic) diseases, (2) chronic diseases and the use of social media, and (3) the examination of individual communities that change and shape their everyday lives with the help of social media and online communities (ME/CFS and/or long/post-COVID syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, lipedema, etc.).

These three thematic areas will be covered in three distinct panels and each panel will be opened by a renowned expert in the field: (1) Rachael Kent (King's College London, UK), (2) Amanda Karlsson (Aarhus Universitet, DK), and (3) Bianca Jansky (University of Augsburg, DE). The call for abstracts specifically addresses predocs and early postdocs and closes on June 1, 2024. For more information please see here: https://sfb1472.uni-siegen.de/publikationen/cfp-popular-health-social-media (The PDF version of the call can be found at the bottom of the website.)

All the best, Ann Kristin Augst & Cornelius Schubert
