Welcome
The Lucidicus Project is an independent educational initiative designed to encourage medical students to think about the foundations of individual rights, and consider what a social system built on the consistent defense of such rights would mean for medicine and healthcare.
Our mission is to provide the Medical Intellectual's Self-Defense Kit to medical students in the United States and around the world. The kit consists of books and other resources that help to clarify the meaning of important concepts such as rights and capitalism, and demonstrate the need for these ideas in society. Every few weeks, we also publish editorials that comment on current issues. To learn more, follow the links above.
This project is supported through the generosity of individual donors. Kits are distributed free to qualified medical students, and there are no membership fees or registration. If the future of healthcare is important to you, then please consider donating!
