About

(Re)Defining Health is an undergraduate reading group at UCLA that looks at medicine through the humanities, and it grew out of a comparative literature course on medical perspectives in literature. Members read shared texts ahead of each meeting, from scientific articles to personal essays and poems that pre-med coursework tends to skip, and board members then lead discussion of the readings and of members' own experiences. The group also keeps a blog where students post follow-up reflections.
