Abstract


This paper discuss the didactic role of biographical method for the subject Introduction to Medicine and Scientific Methodology. We suggest to use medical biographies as a complementary tool of global training process, although an exclusively use of this is inadequate to provide an integrated view, as well scientific as social or cultural approaching, about the medical knowledge and practice in the past.
