The 1st Annual Meeting of the Society for Spirituality, Theology & Health"Spirituality, Health and Human Flourishing: Meaning? Measurement? Implications?"Hosted by The Center for Spirituality, Theology and Health The annual meeting is designed to bring together transdisciplinary scholars and interested physicians, clergy, chaplains, nurses, social workers, counselors, students and lay persons from the United States and other parts of the world to present and discuss the latest research in spirituality, theology, and health. The keynote and plenary speakers represent a variety of specialties through which researchers are asking the questions and doing the research needed to advance the field. This first meeting seeks to promote thought and research about how to operationalize and measure concepts such as spirituality, health, and human flourishing as well as to evaluate the implications of past and current research for the future. The meeting will allow participants in the Society to become acquainted with one another, to share ideas, and to further the development of the field. The meeting will also allow junior scholars an opportunity to network with each other as well as to present their research and discuss it with senior scholars. |
