Applications are invited from individuals who have expertise in one or more disciplines within the medical humanities and social sciences to work with Professor Mark Jackson on an interdisciplinary Wellcome Trust funded research project entitled `Lifestyle, health and disease: changing concepts of balance in modern medicine'.
