Reimagining Healthcare Across Disciplines

We are building a welcoming home where we center the insights and lessons of history, ethics, humanities, social sciences, and the arts to deepen our understanding of health, illness, and care delivery, and to amplify the promise of biomedicine. Put another way, CHHASSEM asks an aspirational question: “What could healthcare become?”

We invite members of the U-M community to co-create this new space with us as a place where we revive the heart of medicine and reimagine the experience of healing and healthcare work.
