publishes Contexts: A Forum for Medical Humanities. In the last
year, this quarterly publication has featured issues dealing with complementary
and alternative medicine, ethics consultation and end-of-life decisions,
interprofessional health care education, and spirituality in health care. In
the coming year we will be exploring hospice and palliative care, cultural
diversity in clinical medicine, Alzheimer's Disease, and we will publish the
winning entries in the second IMCS Writing Contest. We send Contexts
to interested persons throughout Long Island and nationally, free of charge. Throughout the
year, the Institute also sponsors lectures and visiting fellowships whose
focus is to foster the human and creative dimensions in health care. One
major focus of our Artists in Residence program has been the Guild Trio
residency, which has brought inspiring performances and provocative interdisciplinary
colloquia to the heart of Stony Brook's Health Science Center and Stony Brook
University Hospital. |
