近五年来中国医学史研究的进展

近五年来中国医学史研究在原有的基础上又有了新的进展。在以少数民族医学史、近现代医学史、中外医学交流史和比较史研究为主题的全国医史会议召开之后，这些领域的研究有显著的进步，有关论文和专著明显增加。卫生部组织编撰的巨著《中国医学通史》，有力地推动医学通史研究的深入。此外，专科史、疾病史、医家医著、医史理论、世界医学史研究也有新的进展。国际间的学术交流日益频繁。但也存在人才外流，医学史课程尚未列入中华医学会继续教育，疾病史、世界史、医史理论研究薄弱等问题，有待解决和加强。港澳台医学史研究新领域将得到开拓。

Progress in the Research of Chinese Medical History in Recent Five Years

In recent five years, the research of Chinese medical history has made new progress on the basis of what has already been achieved. National conferences on history of Chinese medicine, including minority nationalities, modern and contemporary, medical exchanges with foreign countries and its comparative study on medical history have been convened. After those, research on those domains has made marked progress. The relevant theses and monographs has increased distinctly. A general history of Chinese medicine, organized by the Ministry of Public Health, will propel the research on general history of medicine profoundly. In addition, research on history of medical subjects and diseases, medical porsonages and works, theory of Chinese medical history, history of foreign medicine have also made new progress. There are frequent academic exchanges internationally day by day. But,there are also questions existed; the drain of talent people, the historical course of Chinese medicine have not been included in the lust of continuous education in Chinese Medical Association, weak points in research on history of diseases and foreign medicine, the historical theory of Chinese medicine and so on. These questions remain to be solved and strengthened. New domain on the medical history in Hongkong, Macao, and Taiwan should also be speeded up.
