Yesterday's Doctors: Multidisciplinarity in British Medical Education since 1945. (360G-Wellcome-101072_Z_13_Z)

£2,051

Overall the research will involve 2.5 weeks of archival research on multidisciplinary medical education in Britain since 1945, focusing on the integration of ethics, philosophy, history, social science and the arts into undergraduate curricula and intercalated Masters degrees. These 2.5 weeks will be used as follows: - 2 days: Wellcome Library archives (including medical ethics education 1964-93 and General Medical Council records). - 6 days: Papers of three London medical school archives. - 2 days: Royal College of General Practitioners archives (education). - 1 day: National Archives (medical education). - 5/6 days: two university special collections (Manchester/Aberdeen) as case studies for comparative purposes with London. This research will be used alongside printed primary materials to inform three activities: a) the presentation of papers on Anglo-American medical education since 1945 at the iCHSTM 2013 in Manchester and at EAHMH 2013 in Lisbon (abstracts currently under consideration); b) the publication of an original article for BMJ's Medical Humanities and a shorter commentary for Medical Education; c) development of a proposal for a larger postdoctoral research project which will examine the twentieth-century humanisation of Anglo-American healthcare and medical education.
