Les cachets à collyres
Court-métrage
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4dgh8z_le-346e-cachet-a-collyres_school
Muriel Labonnelie, chercheuse en histoire de la médecine gréco-romaine au Laboratoire d’Archéologie Moléculaire et Structurale (LAMS) nous fait découvrir son travail sur les cachets à collyres, souvent appelés cachets d'oculistes. Suite à la découverte d'un 346e spécimen, lors d'une fouille préventive, dans un dépotoir utilisé au IVe siècle à Lyon, elle retrace l'histoire de cet artefact et nous explique son rôle et ses caractéristiques dans l’Antiquité gréco-romaine. Les collyres se présentaient sous forme de « petits pains » solides : on dissolvait une petite portion de ces « petits pains » au moment de les administrer. Les cachets à collyres présentent des inscriptions gravées en caractères rétrogrades sur leurs petites faces : ils servaient à estampiller les remèdes.
Muriel Labonnelie a remporté le Prix CNRS Images du concours "Filmer sa recherche" dans le cadre du festival du film de chercheur 2015 (http://www.filmdechercheur.eu/spip.php?article578). Ce prix a donné lieu à la réalisation de ce film.

This major Wellcome Trust funded project will re-examine the emergence of the scientific study of human sexuality in the nineteenth century and reconsiders how modern understandings of sexuality were constructed. From the 1890s, medical doctors argued that a properly scientific understanding of sexuality required input from additional areas of knowledge (e.g. anthropology, biology, history, literature, psychology, sociology ). We explore the emergence of a cross-disciplinary 'sexual science' driven by dissatisfaction with exclusively medical approaches. For further information, see http://rethinkingsexology.exeter.ac.uk .
Two full time, three-year postdoctoral fellowships are offered from 1stSeptember 2016 until 31st August 2019. Applicants from all humanities and social science fields, engaging with a wide range of approaches, themes and sources are welcome.
Postdoctoral fellows will be required to carry out archival research, work towards the completion of a monograph of international standing (or equivalent), lead the development of a thematic area through hosting workshops/a conference, produce appropriate publications (such as a thematic journal issue or edited volume), and assist with the planning and running of the project's public engagement and impact work.
Applicants are therefore asked to outline a major 3-year research project on an aspect of the history of sexual science, ca. 1890-1940, that speaks to one or more of the aims of the Rethinking Sexology project and submit this as part of their application, along with a cover letter and CV. The proposed research projects must have a historical focus, but we explicitly welcome applications from researchers across disciplines, including but not limited to English and History. Further details can be found in the accompanying job description.
Applicants are welcome to contact the principal investigators, Professor Kate Fisher k.fisher@exeter.ac.uk and Dr Jana Funke J.Funke@exeter.ac.uk to discuss their research proposals.
Applicants will possess a relevant PhD (or be nearing completion) or possess an equivalent qualification/experience in a related field of study and be able to demonstrate sufficient knowledge in the discipline and of research methods and techniques to work within established research programmes.

Cet ouvrage retrace l'histoire de la micro société hospitalière de deux villes de province au XIXe siècle, au cours d'une période de grands bouleversements pour le monde de l'hôpital. Dans une approche globale, ce livre nous fait découvrir l'exercice de la médecine hospitalière dans sa réalité quotidienne. Il expose les enjeux de l'installation, dans une ville riche et prospère d'un hôpital qui reçoit encore essentiellement des pauvres, analyse l'incidence de la révolution pastorienne sur l'évolution des pratiques ainsi que la laïcisation des établissements.

Michael E. DeBakey Fellowship in the History of Medicine
Call for applications
Call for applications
In February 2016, the National Library of Medicine announced its receipt of a generous gift from The DeBakey Medical Foundation to support enhanced access to the Michael E. DeBakey Archives at the NLM and to establish the Michael E. DeBakey Fellowship in the History of Medicine.
NLM is now pleased to announce the first call for applications to the Michael E. DeBakey Fellowship in the History of Medicine.
Michael E. DeBakey (1908–2008) was a legendary American surgeon, educator, and medical statesman. During a career spanning 75 years, his work transformed cardiovascular surgery, raised medical education standards, and informed national health care policy. He pioneered dozens of operative procedures such as aneurysm repair, coronary bypass, and endarterectomy, which routinely save thousands of lives each year, and performed some of the first heart transplants. His inventions included the roller pump (a key component of heart-lung machines) as well as artificial hearts and ventricular assist pumps. He was a driving force in building Houston’s Baylor University College of Medicine into a premier medical center, where he trained several generations of top surgeons from all over the world.
The National Library of Medicine holds a collection of Michael E. DeBakey papers, dating from the early 1900s to 2009. Containing correspondence, administrative records, diaries, transcripts, publications, speeches, conference and awards material, subject files, photographs, and audiovisual media, the collection reflects the vast expanse of Dr. DeBakey’s life, achievements, and interests as a world-renowned medical statesman, innovator, and champion of humanitarianism and life-long learning. An extensive selection from the Michael E. DeBakey Papers have been digitized and made available on NLM’s Profiles in Science for a broad audience including researchers, students, and educators. Dublin Core metadata describing the digitized content is also available via the Profiles in Science API.
The Michael E. DeBakey Fellowship in the History of Medicine will support individuals in pursuing research in NLM’s Michael E. DeBakey papers, related collections held by the NLM, and the vast range of subjects which informed, or were informed by, Michael E. DeBakey’s professional career — from surgery to health care policy, medical libraries and expanding access to medical information, medical technology to medical ethics, military medicine to veteran health, humanitarianism to international diplomacy in the medical arena.
NLM and the Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences (FAES) have established a partnership to help administer the Michael E. DeBakey Fellowship in the History of Medicine, and they now invite applications from anyone over the age of eighteen, of any academic discipline and status. Non-U.S. citizens may apply.
Fellowships of up to $10,000 will be awarded to individual applicants, not to institutions, to help offset the costs associated with visiting and using the NLM collections, but may not be used for institutional costs or overhead (e.g. clerical costs, supplies, or other attendant project expenses).
Applicants should submit:

Montpellier et la médecine andalouse au Moyen-Âge
Montpellier et la médecine andalouse au Moyen-Âge. Transfert des textes et des savoirs
Jean-Louis Bosc
Presses universitaires de la Méditerranée
Année de publication 2016
Nombre de pages 512 p.
ISBN 978-2-36781-193-2
En 1204, le roi d’Aragon devint seigneur de Montpellier. À partir de 1309, la papauté s’installa à Avignon. Sous ces deux patronages, l’Université de médecine connut, de la seconde moitié du XIIIe siècle à la fin du XIVe, sa période la plus florissante. Ce fut la période de plus grande activité littéraire de ses gradués.
Après avoir assimilé les œuvres arabes traduites au Mont-Cassin et à Tolède, les maîtres montpelliérains étaient à la recherche de nouveaux textes, tant pour leur enseignement que pour leur exercice, notamment au sein des deux cours. Or la récente intégration de Valence à la Couronne d’Aragon donnait accès à de nouveaux textes issus d’al-Andalus. Sous l’impulsion des maîtres montpelliérains, prospéra ainsi un second foyer ibérique de traduction.
L’étude des citations trouvées chez les auteurs médicaux montpelliérains montre que sept œuvres andalouses, traduites en latin entre le XIIIe et le XIVe siècle, sont citées dans une vingtaine d’œuvres montpelliéraines. Certaines de celles-ci, qui datent des XVe et XVIe siècles, prouvent que les textes traduits sont restés pendant des décennies à la disposition des étudiants montpelliérains.
