IGM Projects
Since 1998, a new focus of research at the Institute has been the history of patients, taking social, economic as well as cultural aspects into account. This topic is of central importance not only for the re-orientation of the history of medicine in the Federal Republic; internationally, as well, a great deal of research still needs to be carried out.
