About Medicine & the Muse at Stanford University
The Medicine and the Muse Program provides opportunities for medical students, faculty, staff and community members to explore the intersections between creative expression, humanities based critical inquiry and value-driven social science with medicine and bio-sciences at Stanford. These intersections are collaborative, interdisciplinary nexuses of discovery and innovation. Ultimately these are areas where any in health care - or those who study health, illness, suffering and healing via the arts and humanities - can find meaning and powerful resonances about the human-human interaction which is at the heart of all healthcare.
