Modern Medicines: New Perspectives in Pharmaceutical History
October 17-18, 2008
Madison, Wisconsin, USA
American Institute of the History of Pharmacy
The evolution of the modern pharmaceutical enterprise over the long
twentieth century—from its early intersection with the image and
later the structure of scientific research, to its dramatic postwar
expansion and late-century saturation of medical and marketing media—
has implications that stretch far beyond the traditional history of
pharmacy and medicine to impact broader social, cultural, economic,
business, legal, regulatory, and political developments. This
conference seeks to foster and reflect on the growing body of
pharmaceutical scholarship across historical disciplines and
encourage novel theoretical and methodological developments by
featuring newer scholars alongside more established figures in the
field. Scholars are encouraged to submit a one-page proposal by 1
February 2008; some travel funds will be available for graduate
students, and established scholars interested in using the resources
of the American Institute of the History of Pharmacy may apply for
travel funds through the Sonnedecker Visiting Scholar Program of the
UW-Madison School of Pharmacy (see www.aihp.org for further
information). AIHP Conference Planning Committee: Jeremy Greene,
Dominique Tobbell, Arthur Daemmrich, Michael Flannery, Elaine Stroud,
Greg Higby.
