EPIC is a six-year multidisciplinary research project which will use philosophical expertise to help bring patient voices into healthcare research and practice. The project identifies epistemically unjust ways of conceiving of illness, treating ill persons, and allocating healthcare.
The Nottingham-based research will focus on psychiatric illness, chronic somatic illness and the social epistemology of healthcare systems.
