Opportunity
iScience invites submissions for a special issue, ‘Transdisciplinary Approaches to Arts and Health.’
This issue explores the dynamic intersection of arts and health, focusing on how creative practices contribute to clinical, public health, and societal wellbeing. By examining transdisciplinary methodologies, this issue aims to foster a deeper understanding of how arts-based interventions can support health promotion, disease prevention, and the management of chronic conditions while addressing gaps in access and policy.
The scope includes but is not limited to:
- Clinical applications of the arts
- Public health and community wellbeing
- Neuroaesthetics and health
- Policy, practice, and equity
