ARTiculation Issue 4: 2023-2024
Creativity in Medicine
ARTiculation: Creativity in Medicine reflects the creative endeavors of some of the VTC community. This journal was initially inspired by the VTC Narrative Medicine course, which seeks to develop students’ attentive listening skills, empathy, reflectiveness, and narrative competence through extended patient interviews and creative response. It has now grown into a creative opportunity for all VTC students, residents, faculty, and staff to explore humanism in medicine.
