Minisymposium Socratic Lectures has been held since 2008 within the undergraduate course »Biomechanics of the hip« at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Ljubljana. The purpose of the symposium was to introduce the students into sharing of the knowledge. Lecturers of high scientific excellence have donated their lectures to the students while the students have supported them with their interest and involvement into the subjects. We strived to reach the spirit of Socrates devoting his knowledge, interest and energy to his disciples. After the lectures, the students have engaged themselves and the lecturers into solving of problems from the field of biomechanics, as well as from other emergent subjects. From 2011 on, the students from the Faculty of Medicine were joined by the students from the Faculty of Health Sciences. Postgraduate students have been included as lecturers at the symposium.
In 2018, the symposium has been officially held within the Centre of Learning of the Faculty of Health Sciences and in 2019 the first proceedings of the symposium was published.
Following the symposium, cultural and social events were held at the Museum of Architecture and Design, Fužine castle, Ljubljana, where professional musicians and musician scientists donated their music for the pleasure of the participants. In 2020 due to COVID-19 the symposium and the cultural event were held online.
