PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
This annual History of Medicine symposium will discuss how medicine
has been influenced by society and how the study of past epidemics
helps us respond appropriately today and in the future. We will
discuss the broader role of study of humanities in the practice of
medicine. It is intended for any physician interested in a historical
perspective that will help us to better understand the present,
especially in the complex socio-economic environment in which
we currently practice medicine.
At the conclusion of this course, the participant will be able to:
1. Identify the methods of a great teacher.
2. Identify lessons from the past and present that can inform future
involvement by physicians to reduce tobacco use and promotion.
3. Explain the history of sexually transmitted infectious diseases and
the evolution of their agents, e.g. antibiotic resistance, so as to be
relevant to today’s care of patients.

Tuition is complimentary, but PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED.
