Domain History
The domain CentreForMedicalHumanities.org previously hosted a WordPress blog operated by Durham University's Centre for Medical Humanities. That academic blog was active from approximately 2010 through September 2018, during which time it published over 2,500 posts on topics related to medical humanities scholarship, interdisciplinary health research, and arts-in-health practice.
In September 2018, the founding editor of the Centre for Medical Humanities blog announced the blog's closure. Its editorial functions were transferred to a new platform called The Polyphony, hosted on Durham University's own web infrastructure. The Centre for Medical Humanities was subsequently reorganized as the Institute for Medical Humanities (IMH), which continues to operate as an active and well-funded research institute at Durham University.
The domain CentreForMedicalHumanities.org was later acquired through standard domain registration channels. The current website operates as a completely independent publication with no connection to the domain's previous academic use.
