FACILITIES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESEARCH
The Department of Medicine not only fosters in its methods of instruction
the inductive study by the student himself of the phenomena presented
by the human body in health and disease, but also encourages the spirit of
investigation of unsolved problems of medical science and practice on the
part of the instructors and students. Students are encouraged to engage in
research as they are prepared for it, usually assisting an instructor in some
special study or else conducting the research under his guidance and advice.
For this purpose the scientific and clinical laboratories offer the necessary
facilities, and heads of departments will always be glad to suggest and outline
problems for investigation by any medical student or by others possessing
the necessary training therefor.
Library.—The Medical Library is housed in the New Medical Building,
and is in charge of a special Librarian.
