For the past five decades, anthropologists have taught health practitioners about how our discipline studies and addresses health-related issues. Important curricular reforms in the education of health professionals in the late 1960's and early 1970's greatly expanded such teaching roles for social scientists (Chrisman and Johnson, 1996). While anthropological teaching of certain types of health practitioners such as physicians and nurses are well-known, anthropologists' growing roles in teaching other kinds of practitioners are also being documented today. For example, the burgeoning intellectual, collaborative teaching and practice relationships between anthropology, occupational therapy and occupational science have been discussed by Frank (2007) and Frank & Zemke (2005)
