HUMANITIESWEEK

The Humanistic Medicine Program (HMP) is part of the Office of Student Affairs at NYU Grossman School of Medicine. The HMP offers co-curricular opportunities for medical students–and the larger NYU Langone Health (NYULH) community to engage with, and explore topics in, humanities and bioethics.

We encourage our community to pursue their creative and intellectual interests at the intersection of medicine with the arts, humanities, ethics, and social sciences. Our workshops, research opportunities, and community collaborations foster critical thinking, ethical deliberation, and improve communication.

The program includes five main initiatives:

Seminars: 6-8 weeks in length

Workshops: Single events

Agora Magazine: Arts and literature publication

Gold Humanism Honor Society

Academic offerings: Scholarly concentrations and summer fellowships
