Mongolian medicine: different modes of knowledge transmission

该项目旨在调查游牧医疗实践中的多物种方法，以及这些知识如何在蒙古高原上传播。它将研究蒙医如何治疗人类和动物患者，以及多物种知识如何随着时间的推移而发展。该项目将侧重于三种形式的知识传播：通过口口相传和实际试错来学习；一种更有组织的学习形式，通过佛教寺院学习，既包括学徒制，也包括古代典籍；以及医院的现代制度模式。该项目预计将有助于跨物种的全球健康研究，以及当地不同环境背景下的全球健康研究。

This project aims to investigate a multispecies approach within nomadic medical practices and how this knowledge has been transmitted on the Mongolian Plateau. It will examine how Mongolian medicine treats both humans and animal patients, and how multispecies knowledge has developed over time. The project will focus on three forms of knowledge transmission: learning through word-of-mouth and practical trial-and-error; a more structured form of learning through Buddhist monasteries, which engages with both apprenticeship and ancient texts; and the modern institutional model of the hospital. The project expects to contribute to research on global health across species, as well as across different environmental contexts within local settings.
