Abstract: We share here a selection of the papers presented at the annual Symposium of the Observatory of the Spanish Language and Hispanic Cultures in the United States, which, as is tradition, bore the title New Perspectives on Hispanic Cultures and took place on June 1st and 2nd, 2023. The general theme chosen for this edition was “Spanish in/for Science and Technology.” The medical field was most clearly present in the program, with presentations centered largely on the training and teaching of Spanish for the Health Sciences, placing the focus as much on professionals (nurses and doctors) as on patients. This 87th issue of Estudios del Observatorio/Observatorio Studies includes six of the papers. They appear in this volume in the language in which they were presented during the session, either English or Spanish, but the abstract of each study is offered in both languages.
