SUMMARY:Library Speaker Series: Quackery Through the Ages with Lydia Kang\, M.D.
DESCRIPTION:Lobotomies. Bloodletting. Leeches. Arsenic. The usage of dubiously helpful and occasionally harmful treatments have been a mainstay of medical care since the beginning of recorded history. In many cases\, these were done with the hope of a true cure\, but often they were done in the guise of beneficence in order to financially benefit the so-called “snake-oil salesman.” Dr. Lydia Kang will discuss the historical breadth of how medical treatments–both well-intentioned and not–have evolved over time\, and why they are still so stubbornly alive today. \nRegister to receive the Zoom link at https://unmc.zoom.us/j/96168538691?pwd=Zmd0K1laMVk0cmRSNWRaK3BsLy9oUT09
