"The First Operation with Ether" by Robert Hinckley (1846)

Welcome to Inter-Med,

....'Our knowledge is based on what others have discovered'.....
This statement is certainly true in medicine. We go to elementary school, high school, university and medical school in order to learn. What we learn is based on previous discoveries made by scientists throughout the world. Imagine where we would be without the findings from the past centuries; no vaccination, antibiotics, anaesthesia etc. Therefore we think it is important that research is conducted in every country and be coordinated globally. Nowadays scientific breakthroughs are more likely to be achieved if different people, with different skills, from different countries work together. An inspiring place where physicians and scientists work together is Boston. At Harvard Medical School you are able to acquire great learning experiences in terms of science, lifestyle, and culture. So don't hesitate and check out this site to see what has inspired us to get to Boston.
