AOA Projects & Services: Other Activities

Liaison for National AOA
This person serves as our contact to National AOA.

Literature, Arts, & Medicine
The goal of this year's Literature, Arts, & Medicine group is to explore the beliefs and presuppositions behind the practice of medicine historically and in the modern era. Short common readings may be shared on topics such as the use of language in literature and medicine, and of medicine in classical literature of Herodotus, Shakespeare, or Tacitus. Trips may be arranged to museums in Philadelphia and New York to explore the relationship between emotion and medicine in art, and the depiction of traditional medicine in the arts of other cultures.

AOA makes its guides available to students on the JEFFLINE Web site, along with information about tutoring, the mentors program, and our other activities. You'll find us at http://jeffline.jefferson.edu/JMCstudents/AOA.
