The Centre for the History of Medicine provides a hub for research and teaching in the history of medicine at Warwick.
It is based within the History Department, but it also welcomes and looks to develop interdisciplinary activity across the University, reaches out to scholars nationally and internationally, and engages with policy and the public.
