Course Description and Target Audience
Learning about the history of medicine has long been a part of medical school curricula, though over time its role has been diminished as it has had to compete for curricular time with more and more “hard sciences”.  There has in recent years been a renewed interest in re-introducing humanities into medical and other professional school curricula.

This meeting will be comprised largely of presentations of papers on a very wide range of topics in the area of the history of medicine and science including medical ethics, the history of nursing and local Louisville medical history.  There will be simultaneous paper sessions so that attendees can choose the papers most relevant to them.

The target audience for this activity is all medical professionals and historians interested in the history of medicine – including ALL physician specialties, nurses, historians, medical librarians and students in those fields.
