The Centre for the History of Medicine (CHM) is celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2024. CHM founder, stalwart and inspiration, Professor Hilary Marland will also be retiring this year - at least to the extent that a creative and inspirational scholar ever does!

To mark both of these milestones, CHM will host a day-long event on 13 September 2024.

From 11:00, our Anniversary Fellows, Dr Jennifer Crane, Dr Vicky Long, and Professor Colin Jones will lead us in thinking about what the Centre has brought to the history of medicine, health, and culture across its quarter-century.

After lunch, we will host a discussion roundtable marking Hilary’s many contributions, and considering the overall impact of the CHM on our collective lives, trajectories and research.

Last but not least, we will pop corks and share cakes to celebrate both the Centre and Hilary!
