lGH Department of Su,ge~ is alive and well and very active. Most ,ecently Tour departmental GFT offices and clinics have been redone, renovated and enlarged on the fifth floor of the 'A' Pavilion. New clinics and a full-time teaching office will certainly improve our teaching program. The very convenient physical space is ample and will sat- isfy our expansion needs for the next five years. Serious efforts What's New to acquire endownment funding has been initiated to provide necessary funding for more academic pursuits. at The JGH Our Division of (VT continues to be headed by Nate Sheiner. He continues a very active surgical practice and enjoys visiting his two granddaughters in the USA. Normand Miller is Program Director of Vascular Surgery at McGill and is very actively involved in the executive committee of the hospital. Bob Goodman, one of our cardiac surgeons, recently took a leave of absence. However, Yves Lan- glois continues a very ambitious surgical program as we recruit a new surgeon. Tassos Dionisopoulos has been GFT since 1993 adding strength and depth to our Plastic Surgery Division which is guided by May- nard Shapiro. ~ (please see The JGH pg.4) Sir Mortimer B.

    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.
