About TORCH Medical Humanities Research Hub

The Oxford Centre for the Humanities (TORCH)’s Medical Humanities Research Hub (MedHum) supports the Humanities Division and social science based research on health and medicine. It highlights the contribution of the humanities to a proper understanding of health, disease, and medicine. MedHum challenges the assumption that cutting-edge medical research and innovation in healthcare are solely the domain of physicians and laboratories.
