There is little to no existing research on the history of South Asian doctors in Scotland. This research proposal emerges from a partnership between the AHRC EDI Leadership Fellow project 'EDI in Scottish Heritage' (2021-2022) and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow (RCPSG) which uncovered the records of the first South Asian licentiates at the college in 1872 (see https://heritageblog.rcpsg.ac.uk/2022/08/05/a-history-of-the-first-south-asian-licentiates/). The short heritage placement that uncovered this information formed the basis of a public event and a blog. Feedback from the public event (primarily attended by medical professionals) asked for more information about the history of South Asian doctors in Scotland. This proposal is a direct response to the desire for more information to help raise awareness of the breadth and depth of South Asian life and history in Scotland. The purpose of this project is to address a gap in knowledge about the history and significance of South Asian doctors and medical professionals in Scotland. The research will be guided by five key questions: 1. What were the experiences of South Asian medical students and professionals in Scotland and how did these change over time? 2. What were the connections between British Indian medical institutions and Scottish educational and licensing organisations such as the RCPSG? 3. What were the specific ties between Scottish medical institutions and the British Empire in India? 4. What role did medical networks play in the experiences of South Asian medical professionals? 5. How does the early history of South Asian licentiates inform contemporary social issues connected to South Asian students and migrants in Scotland?

关于苏格兰南亚医生的历史几乎没有现有的研究。这项研究提案来自AHRC EDI领导研究员项目“苏格兰遗产中的EDI”（2021-2022）和格拉斯哥（RCPSG）的皇家内科和外科医生学院之间的合作伙伴关系，该学院于1872年发现了第一批南亚执照持有者的记录（见https：//heritageblog.rcpsg.ac.uk/2022/08/05/a-history-of-the-first-south-asian-licentiates/）。发现这些信息的简短遗产安置形成了公共事件和博客的基础。公众活动（主要由医疗专业人员参加）的反馈要求提供更多关于苏格兰南亚医生历史的信息。这项建议是对希望获得更多信息以帮助提高对苏格兰南亚生活和历史的广度和深度的认识的直接回应。该项目的目的是解决在苏格兰的南亚医生和医疗专业人员的历史和意义的知识差距。本研究将以五个关键问题为指导：1。南亚医学生和专业人士在苏格兰的经历是什么，这些经历如何随着时间的推移而变化？2.英国印第安人医疗机构和苏格兰教育和许可组织（如RCPSG）之间有什么联系？3.苏格兰医疗机构与大英帝国在印度的具体联系是什么？4.医疗网络在南亚医疗专业人员的经历中发挥了什么作用？5.南亚执照持有人的早期历史如何告知与苏格兰的南亚学生和移民有关的当代社会问题？
