The present essay tells the subsequent story, beginning in 1892, when full-time pathologists begin to staff the medical schools and hospitals of Boston. Three individuals from this era deserve special mention: William T Councilman, Frank Burr Mallory and James Homer Wright, with Councilman remembered primarily as a visionary and teacher, Mallory as a trainer of many pathologists, and Wright as a scientist. Together with S Burt Wolbach in the early-to-mid-twentieth century, these pathologists went on to train the next generation of pathologists—a generation that then populated the various hospitals that were developed in Boston in the early 1900s. This group of seminal pathologists in turn formed the diagnostically strong, academically productive, pathology departments that grew in Boston over the remainder of the twentieth century. Modern Pathology (2016) 29, 944–961; doi:10.1038/modpathol.2016.91; published online 17 June 2016 The discipline of pathology in Boston has a rich City Hospital (BCH) and James Homer Wright at the history, extending from the early 19th century MGH—two pioneering full-time pathologists who, through the present day.1 Up to ~ 1950, the story along with Councilman, set the stage for the further can be divided roughly into three eras.

Upon graduation from Yale Medical became lawyers and moved to Detroit to join a relative in a legal fi rm. After high school, Castleman worked his way through Harvard College, gaining entrance despite the quota for Jews in existence at the time. He was unsuccessful, however, in his attempt to enter Harvard Medical School (HMS). Having a prosperous relative in New Haven with whom he could live, he applied to and was accepted by Yale Medical School, where he excelled. His idol and champion there was Dr. Milton C. Winternitz, Chairman of the Pathology Department and later Dean of the medical school. Eager to return to the Boston area to practice medicine, Dr. Castleman volunteered to spend the summers of 1929 and 1930 as an unpaid assistant in the Pathology department at the Massachu- setts General Hospital (MGH).

  • Cope on April 30, 1994, at Age 92, Oliver Cope Died at His Home in New Hampshire, Only a Few Hours After the Death of His Wife, Alice
    Oliver Cope On April 30, 1994, at age 92, Oliver Cope died at his home in New Hampshire, only a few hours after the death of his wife, Alice. Married for 61 years, he and Alice had shared not only their family, friends, students and associates, but also Oliver’s notable achievements in surgery, research and teaching. Oliver Cope was born in 1902 in Germantown, Pennsylvania. He entered Haverford College in 1919, transferred to Harvard the following year, and graduated in 1923. He entered Harvard Medical School that fall and, before he graduated in 1928, took a year off to travel around the world and to work in China for a time as a newspaper correspondent. His surgical internship and residency training were taken at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). While still a resident he became administrative assistant to Edward D. Churchill, John Homans Professor and Head of the Department of Surgery. During his entire academic career, Oliver Cope was loyally and passionately devoted to the evolving missions and expanding programs of the Massachusetts General Hospital. In 1932 he married Alice DeNormandie of Lincoln, Massachusetts. She was a determined and brilliant lady with broad interests. Five years after graduating from medical school, upon completing his residency, Oliver was awarded a Moseley Traveling Fellowship to study in Europe. As newlyweds, he and Alice began their journey together with a trip to Europe. Their first stop was Berlin. It was Hitler’s first year in power, and they were horrified by the Nazi persecution of Jewish academics. Alice’s lifelong concern for the underprivileged and oppressed was strengthened by this early exposure to Nazi tyranny.

  • 6. Educating the Physician
    Insights and Innovations in Community Mental Health The Erich Lindemann Memorial Lectures organized and edited by The Erich Lindemann Memorial Lecture Committee hosted by William James College Foreward The Erich Lindemann Memorial Lecture is a forum in which to address issues of community mental health, public health, and social policy. It is also a place to give a hearing to those working in these fields, and to encourage students and workers to pursue this perspective, even in times that do not emphasize the social and humane perspective. It’s important that social and community psychiatry continue to be presented and encouraged to an audience increasingly unfamiliar with its origins and with Dr. Lindemann as a person. The lecturers and discussants have presented a wide range of clinical, policy, and historical topics that continue to have much to teach. Here we make available lectures that were presented since 1988. They are still live issues that have not been solved or become less important. This teaches us the historical lesson that societal needs and problems are an existential part of the ongoing life of people, communities, and society. We adapt ways of coping with them that are more effective and more appropriate to changed circumstances—values, technology, and populations. The inisghts and suggested approaches are still appropriate and inspiring. Another value of the Lectures is the process of addressing problems that they exemplify: A group agrees on the importance of an issue, seeks out those with experience, enthusiasm, and creativity, and brings them together to share their approaches and open themselves to cross-fertilization.
