Many of our greatest healthcare challenges cannot be solved by science and technology alone.

In May 2024, the Medical Humanities Research Institute convened leading international researchers for a workshop in Paris to address how social, cultural, and ethical forces shape patients’ lived experiences, why healthcare must treat the whole person, and what medical and health humanities can do to make medical interventions more equitable, effective and accessible.
