You are cordially invited to attend the Inaugural Professorial Lecture by Professor Ian K Walsh, Consultant Urologist and Clinical Academic at Kingsbridge Healthcare and Honorary Professor of Practice at the School of Nursing and Midwifery, Queen's University Belfast

The lecture will take place on Tuesday 25 March 2025 at 17.30 in the Council Chamber, Lanyon Building, QUB, followed by a reception in the Canada Room.

The full spectrum of the human condition is encountered in healthcare, which thus contains the key central elements for the production of art, with healthcare occupying a uniquely variable position between art and science. Fostering artistic and creative expression within a healthcare context allows for a holistic approach to science and health, providing an exceptional humanistic climate for artistic creation. 

Collaboration of healthcare with arts/humanities augments education and practice, simultaneously providing invaluable substrate for the humanities; exemplified by humanito-centric narratives and socio-medical interactions. Immersion in arts and humanities allows for liberation and expansion of cognitive processing for healthcare practitioners, whilst facilitating a deeper appreciation of the human condition. Expanding this approach to patients has been key in improving the provision and receipt of quality healthcare, relieving suffering and improving life quality; while further fostering, supporting and cementing the uniquely privileged relationship between patients and healthcare providers
