The Department of History of Medicine at Lund University,
Sweden, the Department of History, Theory and Ethics of
Medicine at the Heinrich-Heine-University in Düsseldorf,
Germany, and the Riga Stradins University, Latvia, are organising
an international symposium about medicine in the Baltic Sea
region. The focus is on scientific networks and transfers since
the turn of the 20th century, and their impact today. The
symposium is supported by the European Association for the
History of Medicine and Health (EAHMH).
A new “Hanseatic League”, “a global hotspot for health”,
“one of the most innovative science macro-regions in the
world”? In the fields of life science and technology, politicians
and managers of current large research projects describe the
Baltic Sea region as a hub of cutting-edge research. How did
these images emerge? Although several research programs have
been established to foster research on this territory, surprisingly
few publications deal thoroughly with “Baltic Sea networks”
in medicine and their impact for the production and spread of
knowledge. This symposium brings together researchers who
currently work on aspects of medical history in the Baltic Sea
region to illuminate currents of ideas and areas of cooperation
and conflict.
