Gresham College Lectures What Medicine Can Learn from Savile Row

Clinical practice is often seen as the acquisition and application of scientific knowledge to diagnose and treat diseases. Yet every patient is different.
This lecture draws on a ten-year collaboration with a Savile Row tailor to explore 'bespoke' as a metaphor for clinical practice. Using this approach, the knowledge and skill of a practitioner must intersect with the needs of the patient to create a unique solution for each problem.
With Joshua Byrne (bespoke tailor)
A lecture by Roger Kneebone 7 October
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website:
