Participation in the arts and humanities is defined as "the act of taking part or sharing in" something: We welcome all arts and humanities students and medical professionals who have an active interest in arts culture, and we encourage active critical thinking, creative pursuits, and interdisciplinary projects.

The humanities and arts offer opportunities to develop and nurture skills of observation, analysis, empathy, and self-reflection - skills that are essential for humane medical care. They provide insight into the human condition, suffering, and personhood, and through them we may better understand our responsibilities as medical practitioners toward ourselves, our peers, and our patients. Studies in humanities yield both an historical perspective on medical practice, and an opportunity to build the ethical and philosophical tools we will need for the future of medical technology and practice. Literary studies, including narratology, help us to understand how medicine is situated within cultural and social contexts, and how medical practice interacts with the individual experience of illness and healing.
