Across cultures, humans have diverse understandings, beliefs, and practices related to illness, health, and healthcare. Through the lens of Medical Anthropology, this class examines the range of human variations (such as race, gender, sexual orientation, able-bodiedness, religious identity, and ethnic groups) that impact the understanding of health, illness, and treatment. The course uses ethnographic, informant and popular sources to explore health beliefs, care systems and healer/patient relationships cross-culturally.
