On 21 October 1959, the establishment of a Faculty of<br />
the History of Medicine and Pharmacy was formally<br />
announced by the Worshipful <strong>Society</strong> of Apothecaries.<br />
Its founding aim was “to foster and extend more general<br />
interest in medical history and to attract the co-operation<br />
of general historians, so that work in this field may be coordinated<br />
with wider historical studies.” Philosophy<br />
joined the Faculty's remit in 1978.<br />
Now, over six decades later, join us at the Faculty's first Annual Black Tie Dinner for members and<br />
guests to mark its diamond anniversary and beyond.<br />
