Approaches to Ancient Medicine, Cardiff University, 23-24 August 2010

Registration is now open for ‘Approaches to Ancient Medicine 2010’. Following the successful seminars held at the University of Newcastle and the University of Reading, the School of History and Archaeology at Cardiff University will be hosting a further two-day event on ‘Approaches to Ancient Medicine’ in August 2010. We aim to bring together scholars approaching ancient medicine from a variety of perspectives including medicine, medical history, philosophy, history of science, classical philology, ancient history, archaeology and social anthropology. The seminar is supported by the Wellcome Trust and the Classical Association.

A limited number of Classical Association bursaries are available (please contact Dr Laurence Totelin: TotelinLM@Cardiff.ac.uk). Students may also apply to the Society for the Social History of Medicine for bursaries (http://www.sshm.org/content/conference-bursaries-students)
