Article: "College of Physicians sees past as its future"
Forwarded to HISTNEUR-L from H-SCI-MED-TECH. The exact Web address for the cited article is: <http://www.phillynews.com/inquirer/2000/Jan/10/magazine/MUSE10.htm> The article notes: "Other efforts to shore up the college's future include: ... Finding a physician who also has a doctorate in history to fill a new endowed chair at the college's Francis Clark Wood Institute for the History of Medicine. The institute encourages the study of contemporary medical issues in historical perspective." I _think_ this is the position whose posting I forwarded to HISTNEUR-L last March; see <http://www.medsch.ucla.edu/som/bri/archives/hnl/msg99044.htm> . The staff listing on the website for the Wood Institute <http://www.collphyphil.org/woodpg1.shtml> does not indicate whether the position has been filled or is still open, only: "Director (To be announced.)"
