<br>Please could you forward to your networks, and to current and completed MA
<br>students with a relevant background in social science?
<br>
<br>Applications invited for a fully funded PhD CASE Studentship in the Sociology
<br>Department at Lancaster University working with Dr Stanley Blue, Professor
<br>Elizabeth Shove, and the British Red Cross. This is a +3 studentship for
<br>Home/EU students who already have a relevant Masters' degree, or will have one
<br>by the starting date.
<br>
<br>Project title: Situating Everyday First Aid: Social Practices and Settings of
<br>Incidents and Help.
<br>Deadline: 9th February 2018.
<br>Starting date: October 2018.
<br>
<br>This is a call for applications for a three year, fully funded, ESRC North
<br>West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership
<br>(NWSSDTP) CASE PhD studentship working in collaboration with the British Red
<br>Cross. The project investigates the social organisation of first aid. The
<br>research will focus on the social and institutional settings within which
<br>first aid 'incidents' occur and how these settings influence the kinds of
<br>'responses' and forms of help that follow. The aim is to provide a better
<br>understanding of accidents, risks, and harms by positioning first aid
<br>incidents not as random events but as embedded in the spatial and temporal
<br>ordering of social practices and social life. Further understanding of the
<br>social organisation of help will put the Red Cross and others in a better
<br>position to promote first aid skills, to help save more lives, and reduce
<br>harm.
