Center for Medicine, Health & Society

The Center for Medicine, Health and Society offers an innovative and forward-looking way of linking the humanities and social sciences to a major academic medical center. CMHS programs are horizontally integrated across Vanderbilt’s nine schools and colleges, and vertically integrated, from freshman seminars to postdoctoral training and continuing medical education. In this trans-institutional and interdisciplinary model, research, teaching, and community outreach and service are interconnected.

International Visiting Scholars Program in Neurology (IVSP)

The aim of this program is to provide a clinical experience as well as a basic overview of the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, particularly of the Department of Neurology and the neurosciences. Observers, which will be the term used for all qualified medical students or physicians trained or working outside of the United States who wish to enhance their clinical and educational skills in a particular area of neurospecialty, are expected to participate in medical rounds and conferences. In addition, the program aims to develop and strengthen working clinical, educational and research relationships between Vanderbilt University and international medical institutions, public and private. The spirit of this program is that of collaboration and collegiality.
