August 1, Heinz Medical College Chapel.

Just a few minutes ago, a pre-school meeting had just begun. In addition to the administrative, security, and logistics personnel, there are many full-time and part-time faculty members from all medical schools, all of whom came to this small hall. "Gentlemen!"

Looking at the dozens of faculty and staff of Heinz Medical School in the audience, John took a deep breath and said aloud: "Today is August 1st, and it is only a short month before the start of our school!" Although there are only nine new students, I think everyone should understand what these students mean to our school! Therefore, I invite you to come today, just hoping to finalize many things before the start of school! ”

After a slight pause at this point, John continued: "First of all, about the appointment of the school management, I will be the first principal of the school, do you have any opinions?" ”

Under John's gaze, there was silence in the audience.

Of course, there will be no opinion on this decision, in addition to being the only investor in the medical school, John is also a world-renowned surgeon, and he also has a high reputation in basic research and pharmaceuticals, not to mention that the education model of the Heinz Medical School was also determined by him and Professor Osler, so it is natural to serve as the president.

Seeing everyone's calm faces, John nodded with satisfaction.

It stands to reason that in his position and circumstances, whether or not he is the dean of the medical school is not so important. After all, he has too many things on his body now, and it is impossible for him to devote himself to the preparation of the medical school in addition to the work of the hospital like Professor Osler. However, considering that he could deal with a lot of things in the early days of the school, and clear a lot of obstacles for Professor Osler and them, John finally decided to come forward and ......

The name of the first principal. It's a loss not to take it!

John, who had vowed to take all the first titles, was complacent, and a series of appointments were announced: Osler was appointed professor of internal medicine, vice president of the medical school, and dean of the School of Clinical Medicine; Thomas, like John, was a professor of surgery and chair of the Department of Surgery; Howard? Kelly was hired as chair and professor of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Among the four major clinical departments of internal and external gynecology and pediatrics, only the position of pediatrics is temporarily missing. In addition, Ehrlich was appointed dean of the School of Basic Medical Sciences and professor of immunology, a concept that was not yet accepted by most physicians. But after two years of bombardment of more than a dozen papers by Ehrlich and John, it has attracted the attention of many people.

In addition, Heinz Medical School established the world's first anesthesiology department, and Paul became the first chair and professor of anesthesiology.

Of course, in addition to clinical professors and lecturers, the School of Basic Medicine also employs professors from various disciplines, such as Professor Delane in anatomy, Professor Cato in physiology, Professor Sprint in pathology, etc., almost all of whom are elites recruited by Osler from Europe. Although John never heard their names in the history books, what else is impossible in this world, with his "reminder and help"? Even John himself took on the position of professor of pharmacology in it. Nowadays, although the research of chemical drugs has just emerged, the development of pharmacology has begun to accelerate, and it is natural for John to occupy a name.

With the exception of surgery, there is only one professor in every other major.

For the time being, John had no intention of letting the name of Professor run wild, in his plans. A professor per major is a must, but everyone else can only be an associate professor or lecturer. Unless you have made great achievements that are recognized by the world, or if your ability and prestige far exceed that of a full professor himself, he can only be promoted to associate professor at most. On the one hand, it can prevent the professorship of medical school from being worthless, and on the other hand, it can also encourage young doctors and scientists to work their way up the ladder and promote the development of medical school.

Thirteen professors make up the backbone of the School of Medicine.

It is also these thirteen professors who make up the teaching committee of Heinz Faculty of Medicine. That is, they will be fully responsible for formulating the teaching plan and training plan of the medical school, and have the absolute right to speak on the approval and allocation of scientific research funds, the scale and standards of enrollment, etc., in addition to having a strong influence on the construction of the school and scientific research investment! This is what John has always believed, and perhaps professors are not good at building, expanding, and investing in medical schools. But in the field of teaching, they are the authorities, and the power must be in their hands.

In addition to these dozen professors, there are eleven associate professors and more than 30 lecturers, totaling a teaching team of more than 60 people. If compared with the 9 students in the first batch, the teacher-student ratio is nearly seven to one, which is a dazzling data. As a result, John gave up hiring professors of physics, chemistry, and English......

So seeing more than 60 people in the audience, John also smiled proudly in his heart: "Gentlemen, there are only nine students in the school, but there are thirteen professors, this lineup may not be simply described as luxurious, right?" ”

"Haha......"

After hearing John's ridicule, the audience burst into laughter.

For such a large teaching team at Heinz Medical School, almost everyone is full of pride in their hearts, especially almost everyone has the experience of "modern" medical education, even young doctors who have just graduated for only two or three years have received modern medical training in Heinz Hospital, which is unique in the world.

After smiling on the stage, John held out his right hand to Osler: "Now, let's invite Professor Osler to the stage and explain our teaching plan for the first batch of students!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa......"

To the applause, Professor Osler walked briskly to the podium.

"Gentlemen!"

Shaking the materials in his hand, Professor Osler's expression was much more serious than John's, and he said in a deep voice: "According to the plan of the school's teaching committee, the medical students of Heinz Medical School have a four-year study period, divided into two semesters each year, and at least nine months of teaching time. Freshmen entering the school must have a bachelor's degree and graduate with a Doctor of Medicine degree. ”

There was silence in the audience, and everyone listened quietly to Professor Osler's speech.

"Overall, four years of education are divided into two phases."

Standing on the podium, Professor Osler said in a high-spirited voice: "The first two years are the first stage, and the teaching content is general basic courses, the former includes English writing, mathematics, Latin, physics, chemistry and biology, etc., and the latter includes anatomy, physiology, pathology and bacteriology. It should be noted that in addition to theoretical knowledge, laboratory education is the most important thing in this stage of teaching, and Mr. Huntelaar has prepared sufficient funds for this purpose, so you don't have to save money for him......"

Hearing Professor Osler's words, everyone in the audience burst out laughing.

Mr. Huntelaar's generosity is now well known in the medical school, as long as your research topic is submitted, he will definitely get the results of his personal approval, and as long as it is justified and promising, it will definitely get sufficient funding. Over the past year, John has paid more than $100,000 for this! Therefore, after the medical school has built a spacious and bright laboratory with facilities that can even be called "luxury", can you still understand?

This medical school, people have never thought of making money!

"The next two years belong to the second stage."

After pressing his hands and waiting for everyone to calm down, Osler continued: "After entering the second stage, students will start to study clinical courses, including diagnostics, internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, etc., but we do not encourage them to do this in school, but to join Heinz General Hospital and rotate through internal medicine, surgery and obstetrics and gynecology respectively!" While learning theoretical knowledge, I really went to the clinical side and learned everything about becoming a physician ......" (to be continued.) )
