Updates in Slow Medicine
“Updates in Slow Medicine” began as a series of discussions about developments in clinical medicine among students, residents, and faculty at the Cambridge Health Alliance and Harvard Medical School. Eventually, these discussions led to regular email posts that gained a following among graduates of the program, colleagues, and eventually physicians and thought leaders throughout the U.S. A new term arose from these discussions — “Slow Medicine” — which, consistent with the broader “Slow Movement”, emphasizes thoughtful clinical reasoning, evidence based practice, and the importance of lifestyle changes for improving health.
