title: [The Museum of History of Medicine at Rome University la Sapienza].
abstract: The Museum for the History of Medicine at Rome University has been--from its very origins--conceived as a didactic device. In its organization and structure, it embodies a journey through medical history, from the remote antiquity to the contemporary age and accounting for continuities and changes. Objects are contextualized through different means--detailed verbal explications as well as new medias. The Museum is thus an institution open to different publics--from sophisticated scholars to young students.
