This lecture will illustrate the ways in which knowledge about language is useful in contexts beyond the teaching and learning of languages or the exploration of speech and language difficulties. After an overview of some definitions,objectives and challenges of the field of applied linguistics, the lecture will draw on the context of cancer experiences to show the contributions that applied linguistics can make more broadly in healthcare.
