We were curious about how our educational efforts have affected alumni. Four of our affiliated researchers at BRCMH have investigated this in depth.

The elective course "Medicine as humanities" is offered at the medical programme at Lund University. Many medical students have taken the course since 2008 and the course evaluations are very positive, every year. Birgit Rausing Centre for Medical Humanities wanted to know if the course also has a long lasting impact.
