Some applications of conversation analysis to medical interactions
Paul Drew, University of York
Professor Paul Drew (BA Exeter, PhD Lancaster) is a conversation analyst whose research focuses on the basic communicative processes and practices of ordinary interaction, especially those associated with social action, repair/self-correction, and turn design. He works also on more specialised interactions in such settings as criminal courts, social welfare agencies, and medical practice -most recently in neurology (epilepsy, dementia), neonatology, and telephone psychological therapy. He has conducted applied and consultancy research (aimed at improving the effectiveness of communication) in some of these settings. He has taught extensively internationally, including CA research training workshops in Europe, China and the US. Paul's profile can be accessed here.

Multimodal conversation analysis: from talk to interacting bodies in their ecology

Lorenza Mondada is Professor for linguistics at the University of Basel. Her research deals with social interaction in ordinary, professional and institutional settings, within an ethnomethodological and conversation analytic perspective. Her focus is on video analysis and multimodality, researching how the situated and endogenous organization of social interaction draws on a diversity of multimodal resources such as, beside language, gesture, gaze, body posture, movements, object manipulations as well as multisensorial practices such as touching, tasting, smelling and seeing.
