MDNR 802 - Introduction to Narrative Medicine3 credits The course will explore narrative and interpretive techniques that may enhance communication within the healthcare community as a whole. Narrative is everywhere in medicine: in patient stories, in the notes we write, in our formal presentations and in conversations with colleagues and families. Traditionally, healthcare education has provided little training in how best to create and interpret such narratives. This course will use medical fiction, essays, poetry, great literature, illness narratives, medical autobiographies and case write-ups to introduce students to Narrative Medicine. The course will include some lecture but largely be conducted as a seminar with writing workshops.
