This essay charts a budding history and historiography on medicine and public health in colonial Latin America. It emphasizes the English-language scholarship, presenting an overview of the field's emerging key themes pitted against its origins in bio-historical accounts of the Columbian Exchange and its consequences for native survival. While the field remains disjointed with significant gaps in our knowledge, this essay positions the emerging historiography as central to larger conversations taking place within the fields of early modern medicine and science, Atlantic history, and colonial medicine in the 19^th and 20^th centuries.
