SUMMARY:Alligators\, carboys and green crosses. Pharmacy symbols\, past\, present and future
DESCRIPTION:The Gideon de Laune Lecture \nSpeaker: Briony Hudson \nWhat have snakes\, unicorns and crocodiles got to do with pharmacies? Modern pharmaceutical signs have a long history drawing on Greek mythology\, heraldry\, founding fathers and medicinal plants. While alchemists used secret symbols to disguise their preparations\, pharmacists used the tools of their trade – including medical ingredients\, pestle and mortar\, and carboys – to promote their profession. In this highly illustrated lecture\, pharmacy history Briony Hudson will share the origins and stories of  many of the visual markers still used today on drug packaging\, in pharmacies and on medical buildings in London and beyond. \nBriony Hudson studied History at Cambridge University\, and Museums Studies at Leicester University. She has been Keeper of the Museum Collections at the Royal Pharmaceutical Society\, Director of Museums at the Royal College of Surgeons\, and a freelance medical curator. She became Director of Amersham Museum in 2022.\nHer publications embrace liquorice\, English delftware drug jars\, popular historical medicines\, the histories of schools of pharmacy\, and a children’s guide to medical history.\nShe is a Past President of the Social History Curators Group\, of the London Museums of Health and Medicine network\, of the British Society for the History of Pharmacy\, and of the Society’s Faculty of the History and Philosophy of Medicine and Pharmacy. \nThe Monckton Copeman Lecture will also be held on this evening.

SUMMARY:Amputation: A Dramatic Act\, 18th Century Britain's Most Famous Case – Dawn Kemp
DESCRIPTION:18th CENTURY BRITAIN’S MOST FAMOUSCASE – SPEAKER: DAWN KEMP \nContemporary representations of surgical operations in Britain in the eighteenth century are rare. The indelicacy of presenting moments of the most extreme human agonies\, even by the most celebrated satirists\, was largely deemed beyond acceptable taste. Protection of the surgeons’ professional space from the public eye was important to contain fear and anxiety surrounding their practice. Guarding against patient exploitation was as important to hospital governors\, mindful of their hospital’s reputation and keen to gain donations from wealthy benefactors\, as to the patients themselves. \nA recently recovered oil painting\, stolen from the Hunterian Museum at the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 1983\, ‘provides a unique visual record of British surgical practice in the mid-1700s. \nDawn is Director of Museums and Special Collections at the College and was Project Director and co-curator of the redesigned Hunterian Museum which opened there in May 2023.
