Our mission is to solve problems that create barriers to healthy life by proposing effective interventions at the intersections of health, humanity, and society.
The UCSF-UCB Ph.D. in Medical Anthropology is a pioneer program in the discipline. Our students are trained to develop original, creative, and relevant contributions to medical and social sciences.
The History of Health Sciences program investigates how medicine, health, and illness are historically perceived, and how those perceptions reflect and shape culture, society, and health care.
