Dear all,

We coordinate a small working group on Psychiatry and Culture in Historical Perspective, co-sponsored by the Section of the History of Medicine and the Department of Psychiatry at Yale’s School of Medicine. The group consists of researchers and clinicians with training in a wide variety of disciplines, including history, anthropology, medicine, psychiatry, and psychology. We write today to invite submissions from scholars in the field interested in presenting their material for feedback in the coming academic year. Typically we meet on Wednesdays at 6:30pm. Our schedule is flexible, though, and we would be happy to work with anyone who might be travelling through the region. Our budget allows us to cover some or most domestic travel expenses.

Inquiries or proposals can be sent to either matthew.gambino@yale.edu or mical.raz@yale.edu.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Matthew Gambino and Mical Raz
