Arkeologen Johanna Bergqvist har i sin avhandling vid Lunds universitet undersökt läkekonsten och läkaryrkets utveckling under medeltiden och renässansen. Tvärtemot vad man tidigare har trott var klostrens läkekonst inte spridd till resten av samhället. Men redan under tidig medeltid fanns i städerna en erfarenhetsbaserad läkekonst med en begynnande professionalisering av yrket. Dessutom fanns det

Det är forskare verksamma vid Lunds universitet o
