The Pharmacy History Working Group is a space for exploring how pharmacy has shaped and been shaped by science, society, and culture across time and around the world. From ancient materia medica to modern pharmaceutical giants, pharmacy has always been more than just pills and prescriptions. It is a profession, a science, a business, and a deep human endeavor. This group delves into the multifaceted nature of pharmacy: as a healing art, a site of knowledge production, a tool of empire, and a driver of global economics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><br>We intend to spark interdisciplinary conversations among historians of science, medicine, and technology, as well as scholars in pharmaceutical studies, STS, and medical anthropology. We aim to think across borders\u2014geographic, temporal, and disciplinary\u2014and bring together individuals who are curious about how pharmacy has evolved in various contexts, from colonial drug trades to contemporary AI-driven drug development.<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Our regular meetings will feature a mix of book talks, manuscript workshops, roundtables, and introductions to the archive. We are accepting proposals for presentations\/workshops for our 2026 meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>How to attend:<\/strong><br>Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chstm.org\/groups\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CHSTM website<\/a>, create an account, and request membership in the workgroup.

Yet, physicians and pharmacists, which within the context of this paper are considered as a single category, interacted with and relied upon numerous craftspeople in the exercise of their trade: potters moulded various pots; smiths created instruments and pans; woodworkers crafted storage systems; stone engravers inscribed medicinal stamps; perfume makers provided key ingredients for the preparation of medicinal products.&nbsp;<br>This paper examines several examples of these interactions between healers and other craftspeople: some are explicitly discussed by ancient medical authors, such as Galen; others are more implicit and must be teased out from our sources. The paper concludes that healers generally, and physicians in particular, were part of an ecosystem of craftspeople, in which hierarchies may not always have been those that we find presented in the works of medical authors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AIHP is pleased to announce the Pharmacy History Working Group in collaboration with the Consortium for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine.
