We have a long-standing record of providing funding to students through CSHM, and are proud of our history as Canada’s primary funder of studies in the history of medicine. 

AMS currently has a five-year agreement with CSHM to provide several offers, including studentships for four students, an AMS Congress Grants to facilitate students attending the CSHM annual meeting, and sponsorship of the AMS Paterson Lecture. We also make funding available to CSHM for the Canadian Bulletin of Medical History, as well as for general outreach, communication and engagement.

AMS is proud to be the founding sponsor for CAHH. You’ll see evidence of our partnership in announcements, on the CAHH website, and at conferences, etc. 

We deeply value the work done by CAHH and believe in its mandate to promote the exchange of ideas and critical dialogue among scholars and practitioners. Like us, they see the advantages of fostering national and international collaboration through meetings, publications, and other activities. They do invaluable work in facilitating interdisciplinary and cross-professional inquiries into research and educational practices that are relevant to the health humanities.
