Dr Brid Phillips
The University of Western Australia
Since completing her doctoral research in Shakespearean Studies and the History of Emotions, Dr Brid Phillips has expanded her research interests to include literary arts and health and health humanities. Her work has continued to focus on meaning making in Early Modern drama and how this informs modern communities of experience.
In addition to her published research in this area, she is also a co-founder of the research group, Heart of the Matter. The Heart of the Matter is an interdisciplinary project which aims to foster collaborations which will deepen our understandings of the heart and improve human wellbeing. A major component of the project is its outreach activities such as the public podcast series and health humanities workshops.
Brid was elected to the ANZAMEMS committee in 2023.
