Empathy Through Narratives

The Narrative Medicine Society at UCLA is dedicated to fostering communication, empathy, and inclusivity by providing a platform for physicians to navigate and articulate in a literary manner how patient narratives have productively shaped the treatment plans they develop and implement. In this way, the Narrative Medicine Society at UCLA aims to bridge the gap between the biopsychosocial circumstances that occur concurrently with patient illness and the practices of physicians in their pursuit of clinical and medical beneficence.
