Join us for the 3rd annual symposium event, featuring topics on Civil War medicine and its importance in the overall study of the American Civil War. Learn about the fight that took place behind the lines—the struggle to save lives. Hear talks and presentations with a focus on details about the people who served as caregivers, the medical equipment used, trauma care, disease impacts on the health of soldiers, field relief organizations and their roles, and more.
