Medical Humanities Capstones

Every year our graduating Medical Humanities minors complete a semester-long capstone project. There are few limits on the shape a capstone can take. Some projects take the form of an academic research paper, some engage with visual media, some focus on public outreach, some are works of poetry and fiction. Students work with the professor leading the capstone cohort and, as needed, with other Medical Humanities and Georgetown faculty to develop, carry out, and complete the crowning achievement of their Medical Humanities minor. We are delighted to share with you here some of our excellent capstones!
