The Feel of Visual Clues: Object-based Workshops of Medical Students at The Chinese University of Hong Kong

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Medical training in Hong Kong begins at the undergraduate level, and the tightly structured curriculum leaves little room for the humanities. When the CUHK Art Museum introduced the Yale program pioneered by Friedlaender and Friedlaender (2013) to the CUHK Faculty of Medicine, the Faculty Dean agreed to initiate object-based training as an optional elective. Student feedback was sought afterwards. The program ran in 2018, 2019, and 2024.
