A Home for the Humanities in Medicine at Duke

For over 25 years, the Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities & History of Medicine has offered a translational space at Duke University to examine how the disciplines of the humanities – such as philosophy, ethics, literature, and history – can help inform issues facing medicine. Our programs, events, and resources serve students within the Schools of Medicine and Nursing as well as faculty and staff throughout the university and healthcare system. The Trent Center includes over 40 affiliated faculty representing over 12 disciplines across five Duke schools.
