International Empathy Colloquium 2017

What is therapeutic empathy?

What kind of empathy is beneficial to patients and practitioners?

Tuesday, 24th October 2017, Hosted by the Oxford Empathy Programme, University of Oxford 

There is growing evidence to suggest that empathy may benefit patients and practitioners. However, some argue that empathy is impossible to achieve and could even cause harm. Join us at this interactive one-day workshop that brings together clinicians, researchers and patients to explore these conflicting aspects of empathy in healthcare and research.
