2023 Annual Friends of Nursing History Lecture

Until recently, very little information was published about the vital contributions of our nurse anesthetists who served during World War II (WWII).

After researching the story of one nurse anesthetist, 1st Lt. Adeline H. Simonson, Carolyn Nicholson, CRNA, BSEd, discusses the impact the nurses made and shares the experiences and dangers Simonson experienced while serving with a 400-bed med evac hospital in the European Theater during WWII. Carolyn Nicholson, CRNA, BSEd, graduated from the Cincinnati General Hospital School of Nurse Anesthesia in 1972. Following graduation, Nicholson remained on staff at the University of Cincinnati (UC) Nurse Anesthesia Program as a clinical and didactic instructor for 42 years. She later obtained her BSEd from UC in 1986 and continued teaching at UC Medical Center until her retirement in 2014. Throughout her career, she was an invited speaker for local, state, national and international nurse anesthesia professional meetings. Nicholson's involvement in alumni activities and interest in history has continued in her retirement.

2017 John C. Burnham Lecture in the History of Medicine/Science
(Ohio State University. Medical Heritage Center, 2017-11-02) Bryder, Linda
Professor Bryder's talk examines her own experience of being drawn unexpectedly into the public arena when she wrote A History of the "Unfortunate Experiment" at National Women's Hospital (Auckland University Press, 2009), a publication which detailed the treatment of carcinoma in situ patients at National Women's Hospital in New Zealand since the 1950s. After her book's publication, Bryder was praised by the scholarly community yet viciously attacked by others who questioned her professionalism and integrity, branding her as being on the side of the medical profession and against the 'victims'.

She also discusses the debates which followed and concludes with some reflections about the responsibilities of historians and the value of history.

2018 Annual James V. Warren Memorial Lecture
(Ohio State University. Medical Heritage Center, 2018-04-12) Chambers, Tod S.
Most discussions of the medical humanities focus either on the way medicine is represented in the arts or on how the arts can foster empathy. In this presentation, Chambers argues that viewing the humanities as "equipment for living" provides a powerful alternative for understanding how the arts can furnish patients and health care professionals with ways to encompass, understand, and respond to commonly experienced situations in health care.
