The history of medicine occupies a curious position in the United States today. Teaching and scholarship in the field (and in the history of all the health sciences, more broadly) is thriving throughout much of the university—particularly at faculties of arts and sciences, but also at schools of nursing, public health, and social work. Attendance at annual meetings of the American Association for the History of Medicine continues to be robust and the quality of the presentations, outstanding. Readers of the Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences, the Bulletin of the History of Medicine, and other publications focusing on the field have benefited from the continued high quality of articles, and competition to publish in those journals remains keen. Yet, as David S. Jones, Jeremy A. Greene, Jacalyn Duffin, and John Harley Warner have observed in this issue of the Journal,1 the history of medicine has barely a presence at the location where a priori it might be most expected to thrive: North American medical schools.
