Humanities have an essential role in medical education. The current gap between the humanities and medicine has to be bridged and there should be continuous and vigorous debate about the theory and practice of medical humanities. Medical humanities is a relatively new concept even in developed countries, and is at infancy stage in developing countries. In Nepal, modules on medical humanities have been initiated in certain medical schools by enthusiastic faculties and it requires further debates for inclusion in curriculum.
人文学科在医学教育中起着至关重要的作用。当前人文学科与医学之间的差距必须得以弥合，并且应当就医学人文学科的理论与实践展开持续而热烈的讨论。即使在发达国家，医学人文学科也是一个相对较新的概念，而在发展中国家则尚处于起步阶段。在尼泊尔，一些医学院校中热心的教员已经开设了医学人文学科课程模块，但要将其纳入课程体系还需要进一步探讨。
