In 2024, the Barbara Bates Center for the Study of the History of Nursing launched its History Lab, a unique initiative that embeds historical practice and analysis within the world’s premier nursing school through curriculum development, educational programming, hands-on activities, and research support.

This event will be in person in Class of '55, Room 241, 2nd floor Van Pelt-Dietrich Library Center and also on Zoom.  

We look forward to seeing you there!
