It was created in 1920 by Professor Titu Vasiliu (1885–1961). The purpose of our paper is to present the most important landmarks of this Society and to put into evidence its place in the Romanian series of morpho-clinical societies. Documentary Material: The activity reports of “Anatomical Meeting” from Cluj, summaries published in “Medical Cluj” journal referring to the presentations and discussions of the cases, which were held at different meetings of this Society. The activity of the “Anatomical Meeting” from Cluj increased, in a significantly and consistently way, the level of morphological and clinical training of physicians from Cluj. There are mentioned some of the most important presentations and the personalities which had special contributions in the evolution of this Society. Conclusions: The “Anatomical Meeting” was a scientific forum that propagated morpho-clinical concept in Romanian medicine, initially in Cluj, and then on a national level. It contributed to the collaboration between pathologists, clinicians and laboratory physicians from Cluj and favored scientific emulation between them. It also was a tribune from which were discussed a few new medical achievements.

After war, while sociology was abolished by the communist political regime, anthropology survived under the leadership of the physician Ștefan Milcu, an ex-member of Rainer’s team. As Director of the Anthropological Research Centre, Milcu took over the idea of monographical research ‒ this time from a bioanthropological perspective. However, he invited to researches a few social scientists to cover some aspects of demography, family studies, ethnography etc. Among them, especially Traian Herseni and Vasile Caramelea (under the protection identity of “demographer”, “or statistician”) produced outstanding contributions to the monographs of the villages Clopotiva, Bătrîna, Nucșoara & Cîmpu lui Neag ‒ all of them in the district of Hațeg, an ancient county of great importance for understanding the genesis of the Romanian people. A collateral super-eff ect of this activity was the foundation ‒ în 1964, at Vasile Caramelea’s initiative ‒ of the Section of cultural anthropology in the organization of the Anthropological Research Centre.

  • O Doamnă Cât Un Secol. Timpul Şi Margareta – Adevarul
    5/12/2017 O doamnă cât un secol. Timpul şi Margareta ­ adevarul.ro O doamnă cât un secol. Timpul şi Margareta Iulian Andrei Crăciun, Pictoriţa Margareta (Medi) Wechsler Dinu are 103 ani. Este cea mai frumoasă femeie pe care am întâlnit­o. Ştiţi ora aceea a dimineţii când în oraş e încă linişte şi prima lumină cade perfect peste întunericul catifelat, cade divin, ca într­un tablou de Marc Chagall? Atunci, la răsărit, uneori, dar tot mai rar, Medi Dinu priveşte cerul. Ştiţi de câte ori şi cât de frumos a răsărit soarele din decembrie 1908 până în martie 2012, până în acest timp târziu, cu suflete îngheţate? Medi Dinu ştie. Istoria secolului XX are în sfârşit un cronicar adecvat. Şi câte s­au întâmplat în ultima sută de ani! Au căzut şi monarhia, şi comunismul, au scris şi Jean­Paul Sartre şi Mihaela Rădulescu, şi­au dat măştile jos toţi diavolii, coborând omenirea în grotă, şi s­au ridicat rachetele spaţiale spre abisuri, transportându­ne toate visele pe Lună, iar noi contăm pe istorie? Da, noi contăm pe istorie.Această femeie care ne priveşte acum cu ochii ca marea a văzut tot: a fost evreică în timpul a două războaie mondiale, a absolvit Belle Arte, dar a studiat şi matematici, şi filosofie, i­a fost elevă şi lui Dan Barbilian (poetul Ion Barbu), şi lui Nae Ionescu, a pictat Balcicul din dragoste şi cu talent, a fost căsătorită cu un poet ­ Stephan Roll ­ care a lucrat în cuvinte ca în mătase.

  • From Ribosomes to Cellular and Molecular Biology, with George Emil Plade
    FROM RIBOSOMES TO CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, WITH GEORGE EMIL PLADE ION NEACSU 1* The year 1953 has proved to be a great one for world’s science, as it is the issuing year of the studies announcing two of the greatest discoveries in life sciences, namely: elucidation of the spatial molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by J.D.Watson, F.H.Crick and M.H.F.Wilkins – and ribosome’s putting into evidence – by George Emil Palade. The memorable importance of these two great discoveries has been unanimously recognized within the international scientific community, by the awarding of the Nobel Prize, in 1962 – for the DNA structure and, respectively, in 1974 – for ribosome and cell ultrastructure’s elucidation. Thus, in the year 2003, the whole scientific world has marked the 50th anniversary of these two events which laid the basis of a new biological science, already proved as having a most promising future, namely cellular and molecular biology which, together with molecular genetics and quantic physics, has enlarged the horizons of life’s and matter’s deep knowledge. At the same time, the year 2003 recorded a rare coincidence that between the celebration of one of the most representative men-of-science in the last half of the XXth century, and of its exceptional scientific work, materialized in the homage paid to Professor George Emil Palade for his 90 years of life and 60 years of uninterrupted scientific activity. In such a special, indeed, occasion, besides the scientific manifestations dedicated to such fortunate anniversaries, it would be appropriate to evoke, too, the most noteworthy aspects of the life and impressive achievements of the contemporary scientist – happily, a fellow citizen of ours, as well – a prominent personality of world science, the explorer of major discoveries on living cells’ ultrastructure and on the mechanism of some fundamental living processes, our Nobel Prize winner, George Emil Palade.

Cuvânt înainte Acest volum deschide colecţia de carte antropologică Francisc I. Rainer, care are drept scop cunoaşterea fiinţei umane în integralitatea ei bio- psiho-socială şi în dinamica ce o realizează cu mediul înconjurător. Această viziune complexă despre om, iniţiată la sfârşitul secolului al XIX-lea şi dezvoltată apoi în secolul următor în lumea ştiinţifică internaţională, a fost introdusă la noi de Profesorul Rainer, membru de onoare al Academiei Române.
