  • American Osler Society
    49th Annual Meeting of the American Osler Society Sir William Osler, quoting Leigh Hunt, “Abou Ben Adhem” Sunday, May 12th – Wednesday May 15th, 2019 Hotel Omni Mont-Royal Montréal, Canada Hotel Omni Mont-Royal 49th Annual Meeting of the AMERICAN OSLER SOCIETY Sunday, May 12th – Wednesday, May 15th, 2019 Hotel Omni Mont-Royal Montréal, Canada Credit: Karen Koshof The Osler Niche contains the ashes of Sir William Osler and Lady Osler, as well as those of Osler’s dear cousin and first Librarian of the Osler Library, W.W. Francis. The Niche was designed with Osler’s wishes in mind. Its realization was not far off the vision imagined by Osler’s alter ego Egerton Yorrick Davis in “Burrowings of a Bookworm”: I like to think of my few books in an alcove of a fire-proof library in some institution that I love; at the end of the alcove an open fire-place and a few easy chairs, and on the mantelpiece an urn with my ashes and my bust or portrait through which my astral self, like the Bishop at St. Praxed’s, could peek at the books I have loved, and enjoy the delight with which kindred souls still in the flesh would handle them. Course Objectives Upon conclusion of this program, participants should be able to: Describe new research findings in the history of medicine. Outline the evolution of medicine in a particular disease. List professional contributions made by others in medicine. Intended Audience The target audience includes physicians and others interested in Osler, medical history and any of the medically oriented humanities who research and write on a range of issues.

  • Jon Van Rood the Pioneer and His Personal View on the Early
    Transplant Immunology 52 (2019) 1–26 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Transplant Immunology journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/trim Review Jon van Rood: The pioneer and his personal view on the early developments T of HLA and immunogenetics ⁎ Martine J. Jagera, , Anneke Brandb, Frans H.J. Claasc a Dept. of Ophthalmology, LUMC, Leiden, The Netherlands b Sanquin, Leiden, The Netherlands c Dept. of Immunohematology and Blood Transfusion, LUMC, Leiden, The Netherlands ABSTRACT A single observation in a patient with an unusual transfusion reaction led to a life-long fascination with immunogenetics, and a strong wish to improve the care for patients needing a transplantation. In 2017, Jon van Rood, one of the pioneers in the field of HLA and immunogenetics of transplantation, passed away. Several obituaries have appeared describing some of the highlights of his career. However, the details of the early developments leading among others to the routine use of HLA as an important parameter for donor selection in organ- and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are largely unknown to the community. After his retirement as Chair of the Department of Immunohaematology and Blood Transfusion (IHB) in 1991, Jon van Rood wrote regularly in the “Crosstalk”, the departmental journal, and gave his personal view on the history of the discovery and implications of HLA. These autobiographic descriptions were originally written in Dutch and have been translated, while texts from other sources and the relevant references have been added to illustrate the historical perspective. This special issue of Transplant Immunology combines the autobiographic part, Jon's own version of the history, with other facts of his scientific life and the impact of his findings on the field of clinical transplantation.

  • Book of the Quarter
    Proc. R. Coll. Physicians Edinb. 1998; 28: 119-124 Book of the Quarter NOTHING VENTURE NOTHING WIN Professor Sir Michael Woodruff, Scottish Academic Press, 1996, pp 234 I.F. MACLAREN,* 3 MINTO STREET, EDINBURGH EH9 1RG Over the past 200 years, the two senior professorial Chairs of Surgery in the University of Edinburgh have been occupied by a remarkable series of brilliant surgeons and inspiring teachers, some of whom have also been clinical scientists of the highest distinction, such as Charles Bell, James Syme, Joseph Lister, John Chiene, Alexis Thomson, Harold Stiles, David Wilkie and James Learmonth. For a ten-year period after World War II, the Chair of Systematic Surgery and the Regius Chair of Clinical Surgery were jointly held by Sir James Learmonth but, upon his retirement in 1956, the University decided to separate the two Chairs again and to redefine their academic roles. Prime responsibility for the organisation of undergraduate surgical teaching was transferred to the Regius Chair of Clinical Surgery, and the Chair of Systematic Surgery was reborn under the new designation of the Chair of Surgical Science with an implicit orientation mainly, but by no means entirely, towards research. In his autobiography, Sir Michael Woodruff, who was appointed to this Chair in 1957, tells us that at the time he considered its new title to be ill-chosen, and he records his satisfaction at its reversion to its original designation before his retirement. This is but one of many insights into his academic and scientific philosophy afforded to us by the author of this fascinating book: Sir Michael’s major contributions to biomedical science have enhanced the illustrious reputation of the Edinburgh School of Surgery and have entitled him to a fame equal to that of the most distinguished of his predecessors.

Addy, Vice Provost and Dean of the Graduate School Copyright © 2018 by Adam Omelianchuk All rights reserved. ii Abstract The purpose of my dissertation is to give a philosophic defense of the so-called “dead donor” rule (DDR) in transplant ethics, something that is sorely lacking in the current literature on the topic. Part of my project is concerned with the rule’s correct formulation: What exactly does it forbid? I answer that it is primarily concerned with prohibiting the killing of the donor for his or her organs, and that it need not be concerned with requiring that the donor be dead before surgery begins (as important as that might be).
