Workshop: Gender and the medical profession in Britain and Ireland,<br>
c.1800-1950<br>
The Moore Institute for Research in the Humanities and Social
Studies,<br>
National University of Ireland, Galway<br>
Friday, February 26th, 2010<br><br>
Supported by the Wellcome Trust<br><br>
The main objective of this meeting is to explore the importance of<br>
gender as a mode of investigation within the history of medicine.
This<br>
workshop will bring together historians of medicine from Ireland and
the<br>
United Kingdom who are working on themes relating to gender and the<br>
medical profession in order to discuss most recent research that is<br>
being conducted within the field. Through the discussion of gendered<br>
themes relating to the history of medicine, participants will
provide<br>
useful feedback to each others' work in addition to focusing on the<br>
relevance of gender to modern research in the history of
medicine.<br><br>
The themes of papers that will be given include:<br>
o Gender issues within the history of
medical education and<br>
medical students.<br>
o Masculinity and femininity and the
medical profession.<br>
o Gender issues with regard to the
treatment of patients.<br>
o Masculine and feminine
representations of medical missionaries.<br>
o The future of gendered themes
within the history of medicine: is<br>
gender a valuable mode of investigation?<br><br>
<br>
Registration for this workshop is essential. If you wish to attend
