The Medieval Transmission of Medicine along the Silk Routes

Dr Lo has worked extensively over the last five years with Professor Wang Yidan 王一丹, Head of the Persian Section, Department of Oriental Languages, Peking University. They work together on late medieval Persian history, and particularly on the Persia China Silk Road connection. We have lectured worldwide and have two jointly authored articles in press. Dr Chen Ming from PKU, whose research focuses on science and culture along the Silk Roads, has contributed a number of articles to a Wellcome Trust funded project Dunhuang 2000, and to Dr Lo's book Medieval Chinese Medicine, and the journal that she edits, Asian Medicine: Tradition and Modernity.
