Founded in 1965, the British Society for the History of Medicine is an active and vibrant organisation that welcomes all who have an interest in the study of the history of medicine. We strive to promote organisations and individuals involved in the study of the history of medicine and to provide a platform for presentation and sharing of ideas.
