"Ya Pheun Meuang", traditional or folk medicine, is still an important part of Lao life, especially in rural areas without much access to modern medical practices. Elizabeth Elliott is a medical anthropologist who has studied local remedies in Laos for many years. Join us as she guides us into this arcane world of healing herbal tinctures, decoctions, and spiritual techniques.

As always, doors open in the meeting room at Kualao Restaurant at 7 pm, so come in early, grab a drink, and get ready for another night of stimulating discourse with Cultural Studies Series.

Admission: 30.000K (standard), 10.000K (Lao students)
