The question of transfer of knowledge and skills is constantly recurring at conferences of the German-Polish Society for the History of Medicine. The goal of the 2019 conference is to examine the circulation of medical knowledge and skills in a broader context. The period we want to discuss is from early modern times to nowadays. The space we want to focus on is, roughly, Europe (with works on German and Polish contributions to the circulation phenomenon remaining particularly welcome). We would love the 2019 conference to work as a meeting point for scholars who, while studying different aspects of the multifaceted phenomenon of medical knowledge/skill circulation, approach this subject from a variety of differing angles, and use various methods, tools and sources.
