VTCSOM Dean Cynda Johnson and JCHS President N.L. Bishop were Healthstorian's first two interviewees Saturday at Roanoke's Go Fest.

Introducing the Healthstorian

The Healthstorian is a vintage style camper that has been retrofitted as an audio booth. This mobile “storycorps” camper will go a long way in documenting the history of healthcare and of the health in our community and neighborhoods.

The amazing project is a result of collaboration between partners VTC School of Medicine and Research Institute, Jefferson College of Health Sciences, Carilion Clinic, City of Roanoke Libraries, and several departments at Virginia Tech; especially VT Library System and VTStories, a program dedicated to preserving Hokie history.
