The Medical Humanities Podcast – Medicine in History, Culture and the Arts

by

Welcome to the Medical Humanities podcast. I’m your host, Eve Elliot. You may not hear the words ‘medical’ and ‘humanities’ in the same sentence very often. In fact, at first glance they seem to represent two very different disciplines: one generally scientific and the other generally artistic. This podcast is about the many fascinating ways medicine intersects with history, culture and the arts.
