An investigation of experiences of reading for mental health and well-being and their relation to models of bibliotherapy Elizabeth Brewster A study submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Sheffield Information School September 2011 ii Abstract Bibliotherapy is the use of imaginative or self-help literature as an intervention for mental health problems. It aims to provide psycho-social support and treatment and is used with individuals or in a group. Bibliotherapy has come to prominence in the UK over the past decade. Bibliotherapy schemes mainly operate in partnership between the public library and the NHS. Previous research on bibliotherapy has focused on the quantitative effectiveness of the intervention or anecdotal report of individual successes. Evaluation of current schemes and qualitative investigation of the views of those experiencing bibliotherapy have been neglected in previous research, providing the rationale for this thesis. The thesis argues that because there have been shortcomings in previous research, there are differences in the understanding between those managing bibliotherapy schemes, and those using the schemes.

  • E . J E N N Y H E a T H C O T E Dr. E.J.L. (Jenny) Heathcote
    E . J E N N Y H E A T H C O T E Dr. E.J.L. (Jenny) Heathcote was born in the UK and graduated from the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine, London, UK in 1968. She was introduced to the field of liver disease immediately as her first position as a resident was with the late Dame Professor Sheila Sherlock – the most famous hepatologist of her time. Following completion of her internal medicine training, Jenny returned to the Sheila Sherlock “empire” where she spent 4 years doing research on the transmission of Hepatitis B - she was awarded her MD thesis in 1976. Jenny emigrated to the USA and later accepted a staff position in Canada at the University of Toronto where she has remained for 33 years. From scratch she built a clinical program in Hepatology with a particular focus of viral hepatitis (B and later C) and autoimmune liver disease. She has been a Professor at the University of Toronto since 1995, winning the Department of Medicine Clinician Teacher Award in the same year. She had been awarded the May Cohen Award by the Canadian Medical Association for her mentoring of trainees in 2003. In this same year she initiated the National Canadian Research Training Program in Hepatitis C (CIHR funded) where she was the PI until the program was refunded in 2009. She is a recipient of the Queen’s Jubilee Gold Medal for her service to hepatology and received the Canadian Liver Foundation Gold Medal in 2004. In that year, she also received the Canadian Liver Foundation Lifetime Achievement Award.

  • 2020 Dr. Philipp Schwabl Host Institute
    Sheila Sherlock Post-graduate Fellowship - 2020 Dr. Philipp Schwabl Host Institute: University College London Biography: Philipp Schwabl was born 1988 in Vienna and is working at the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology (Head: Michael Trauner) at the Medical University of Vienna for over 10 years. Mentored by Thomas Reiberger, the focus of his work lies in the translational research of liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension. As a physician/scientist Philipp Schwabl has long lasting experience in both, treatment of cirrhotic patients and in-vivo experiments with respective liver disease models. This allows him to investigate novel treatment options for portal hypertension from bench to bedside. In his past works, within the Reiberger group, Philipp studied the hemodynamic effects and the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of drugs like nebivolol, sorafenib, pioglitazone, PX206065 (non-steroidal FXR agonist) or riociguat (soluble guanylyl cyclase stimulator) in different portal hypertensive models. He also explored the clinical impact of hepatitis C clearance on portal hypertension, and investigated elastography and biomarkers to assess cirrhosis, portal hypertension and respective clinical outcomes. Philipp is also active as a teacher at the Medical University of Vienna and has been the president of the Young Scientist Association at his university. He has acquired funding for several peer-reviewed projects and received national and international awards for his scientific contributions. Research Project: Research Project: Targeting stellate cell contraction to reduce liver tissue tension and treat portal hypertension Hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are pericytes lining the liver sinusoids in the space of Disse. In case of liver damage HSC become contractile. Thus, HSC affect tissue tension and sinusoidal flow, which subsequently promotes inflammation, fibrogenesis and portal hypertension.
