Are you interested in exploring the Humanistic side to Medicine?
Do you believe as Hippocrates said that “wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity”?
And that Medicine is both an art and a science? 

The Sechenov University's Academic Writing Office announces a new online Introduction to Medical Humanities course organised by Prof. Jonathan McFarland.  It will introduce important topics relating to Literature and Medicine, Philosophy and Medicine, History and Medicine and much more.
We have attracted worldwide experts who will give lectures on such topics as “Narrative Based Medicine”, “Opera and Medicine”, “An introduction to Medical Philosophy” and many more. The lecturers come from such Universities as Johns Hopkins (USA), McGill (Canada), Glasgow (Scotland), Helsinki (Finland), Queen’s Belfast (Northern Ireland) and more.
Take a chance of working in an intercultural setting with international lecturers and students!
The course will be twice a month on Saturdays, starting on December 1, 2018 and ending at the beginning of June, 2019. In April, participating students will be able to attend and contribute to the II "The Doctor as a Humanist" Symposium which will be held at Sechenov University.
