Our congratulations to Laura on this successful interview.

The Centre for the History of Medicine at the University of Warwick is pleased to present the live website for 'Inside the Irish Giant: History, Science and Art. The theatre production by Cartoon De Salvo is our latest public engagement event and was kindly sponsored by the Wellcome Trust Centre Strategic Award. The Centre would like to thank all those who were involved in making this project happen from the early discussions to the event itself, and its presentation on our web: http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/history/chm/outreach/irish_giant

The video presents snapshots from the two performances and the expert panel discussions. We are delighted that this exciting endeavour came to successful fruition. Should you wish to get in touch about this or any projects undertaken by the Centre please do not hesitate to contact us. We would be delighted to hear from you.

The Centre is pleased to announce its appointment of Dr Sarah York, as the History and Strategic Award Research Fellow commencing in October 2011.

We are delighted that Sarah will be joining the Centre community and very much look forward to working with her in the coming year.
