Medicine in culture and society
This course is elective within the medical programme, nursing programme, physiotherapy programme and pharmacy programmes. The goal of the course is to introduce central concepts about illness and health in a wider cultural and societal context.
Patienten och vårdmötets dynamik
This summer course offers interdisciplinary perspectives on meeting patients from different groups. The topics covered are, for example, the patient's competence, cross-cultural care meetings, language and norms and power. The teachers on the course come from various academic disciplines such as medicine, anthropology and history of science and ideas, as well as from civil society. Several of the teachers also have clinical experience. The course is aimed at people who are professionals in healthcare and medicine, who want the opportunity to reflect on their role and develop their skills.
