The five-day interdisciplinary festival aimed to generate a discussion related to the under-explored social history of pharmacy and pharmaceuticals. We hoped the contributed paper panels, books talks, and invited festival talks stimulated/connected new scholarship and placed a spotlight on emerging trends in the studies of pharmaceuticals, drugs, and alcohol more broadly.

Actively engaged in preserving the documents of pharmacy's past and developing materials for understanding the future.
