Abstract
The University of London and Medical Education.
Highlights
The medical student of to-day has to learn many things besides what he can pick up in the wards, and the burden of teaching these preliminary and ancillary subjects has to many of the smaller schools become a very serious affair
Tlence while everybody admits that the teaching of medicine proper is a matter for the hospitals, and that this work must be distributed among them wherever they exist, a strong feeling has arisen in favour of some form of concentration of the teaching of the earlier subjects, so as to avoid the obvious waste which is involved in every teaching hospital having to possess a fully equipped medical school
"When, we come to the intermediate subjects, such as anatomy and physiology, there are many good reasons for believing that it would not be for the advantage of medical education for the teaching of these sciences to be concentrated in one great university school, even if the university had the money wherewith to establish such an institution
Summary
The medical student of to-day has to learn many things besides what he can pick up in the wards, and the burden of teaching these preliminary and ancillary subjects has to many of the smaller schools become a very serious affair.
