Thursday 28 March
Medieval Surgery
10:30am – 12pm
Speaker: Steve Bacon
Steve explains the theory of the four humours that underpinned Medieval medicine and demonstrates the skill of the surgeon. Live leeches add the eeeek factor to some of this talk. While it is not possible for these sessions to be too ‘hands on’ – or should that be ‘hands off’? Audience participation is encouraged and questions are answered with relish – or is that just fake blood?
