- **Event Description**: Fact and Fiction: exploring the history of medicineAbout this EventOpening Eyes by Professor Hugh TaylorSenior ophthalmology student, Dr Hugh Ringland Taylor, was in the field with the National Trachoma and Eye Health Program with Professor Fred Hollows in the 1970s. Later in life he changed the course of his career, leading the Indigenous Eye Health Unit with the goal of 'closing the gap' for vision and total elimination of Australia's 'sandy blight', Chlamydis tracomatis.He had top-drawer credibility at WHO and the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness. But this goal required diplomacy, lobbying, connecting people, community liaison and listening, advertising, the magic of meeting AFL legends in the flesh, education, fund raising, financial management, and dealing with whatever arises. Walls between medical disciplines, around bureaucracies, state borders, wherever, are there to be climbed. Readers will be surprised by what a public health campaign involves.In our 150th year, hear from authors of books that centre around First Nations Healing practices, innovators and leaders in medicine and social change to M**der mysteries and novels grounded in medical history. These autobiographies, biographies and flights of fancy will inspire and amaze as fact is sometimes more surprising than fiction.
