Beskrivelse
Expertise and expert knowledge are omnipresent terms and powerful concepts in healthcare settings. From highly specialised knowledge of physicians, nurses, and other health professionals to the knowledge of non-medical therapists and lay people, to the experience-based knowledge of patients, service users and survivors, expertise comes in many forms and variations. This interdisciplinary research symposium invites participants to critically examine variations of ‘expertise’ and ‘expert knowledge’. In four thematic sessions, we want to explore how different understandings come at play in healthcare settings, how they inform healthcare practices, how implicit and explicit 'expert knowledge' is taught in educational institutions, and how research practices and notions of scientific 'evidence' are shaped by and shape 'expertise' in healthcare settings.We have identified three levels of expertise that we intend to explore together: 1) expertise of professionals in relation to lay-persons, relatives, users, survivors, or patients, 2) “professional” expertise and its explicit and implicit traits and 3) expertise of social anthropologist and qualitative research in ‘other’ settings, like to the fields of nursing science or other applied fields of research. We are interested to discuss how ‘expertise’ is negotiated between the various actors and fields in healthcare settings. How do different understandings of expertise influence the healthcare people receive? What kinds of knowledge are at stake in healthcare?
