Archive of the Institute for the History of Medicine at the University of Bern

The Institute for the History of Medicine of the University of Bern (IMG) is an academic teaching and research institution which, in addition to a collection and a library, also maintains an archive on the history of medicine. The main focus of the archive's activities is the documentation of Bernese and Swiss medicine, but additional material is also archived on a case-by-case basis. The collection has grown over the decades, mainly through donations and in rare cases through acquisitions.
