Summary: Health care in our increasingly globalized world is constantly changing, due in part to factors such as the emergence of new forms of illness like HIV/AIDS, the increased privatization of health care that followed on structural adjustment policies in the 1980s, and the more recent growth of medical tourism.  Two back-to-back conferences at Syracuse University address these issues: the first examines the intersections between gender, sexuality and HIV/AIDS (Sept. 27-28) while the second examines the changing landscapes of health care in modern South Asia (Sept. 28-29).
