Sciences, Philosophie, Histoire – UMR 7219, laboratoire SPHERE

The seminar has been created in 2009. It is organized by SPHERE ; Centre Georges Canguilhem (Humanities Institute of Paris - Université Paris Diderot) (C. Lefève) ; CIRPHLES - Ecole Normale Supérieure (F. Worms, Cl. Marin Cl) ; ETHOS (Plateforme éthique - University of Lausanne (L. Benaroyo)) ; Institute of Sociology - Université Libre de Bruxelles (N. Zaccai-Reyners) and National Resource Centre for Palliative Care (J.-C. Mino).

The seminar is founded on the hypothesis that care is the aim and the essence of medicine. Scientific objectivity and subjective experience of the patient often seem in opposition. Nevertheless, treatment and care require the scientific medicine and its techniques. The seminar tries to understand how medical specialization and technologies, patients/physicians relationship, health system and public health policy can hide and deny the subjective experience of the patient. The seminar studies individual and collective significations of illness and various ways to approach them in medical care.
