Around two dozen scholars from the Republic of Armenia, the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Austria, and Iran participated in the workshop. They delivered presentations focused on the study of medical manuscripts, as well as on the diverse challenges of cross-cultural knowledge transmission.
In their talks, international participants emphasized the importance of intercultural interactions, the uniqueness of ancient Armenian medical traditions, the development of pharmaceutical literature, and the role of interreligious mediation in the circulation of knowledge.
Speakers also addressed medical methodologies and conceptual frameworks, along with approaches to disease diagnosis in medieval medicine. The presentations were followed by engaging discussions.
