About the event

The School of Humanities and Social Sciences at TU Dresden is pleased to announce the Interdisciplinary Summer School where “Social Sciences meet Health Care”! During the one-week program, this summer school offers a broad range of presentations, workshops, and activities focusing on the subject of “Inclusive Innovations in Health Care”. For this purpose, TU Dresden invites high-potential junior and senior academics to join our international gathering and to push the boundaries in cross-discipline research in social sciences and health care.

During this event, we want to create a network for interdisciplinary researchers in the context of inclusive innovation in health care. Moreover, we aim at stimulating individual research of each participant and develop an intensive knowledge exchange within an elite group in the field of inclusive innovation. As a central outcome of the Interdisciplinary Summer School, a short paper of each participant will be published in the Summer School proceedings.
