Abstract
Medical mobilities offer both opportunities and challenges. This tension follows the same ratio as many other
historic fora, but offers at the same time a sustainable equilibrium. Multi-disciplines are, therefore, the key to the
medical lifeworld for the global health and well-being of transnational health users around the globe.
