**This site will be best viewed with Internet Explorer.** MMI HISTORY The University of Missouri-Columbia School of Medicine , organized as a two-year school in 1872, was the first publicly supported medical school west of the Mississippi River. The school survived the scathing “1910 Flexner Report on Medical Education in the United States and Canada” which led to the closure of the vast majority of the proprietary “medical school enterprises” of the time. Although the School of Medicine had, at times, experimented with a four-year curriculum, the current four-year program was not permanently established until 1955 when Frank B. Engley, Jr. (Ph.D., U. Penn., 1949) became the first formal Professor and Chairman of the Department of Microbiology . Dr. Engley’s scholarly interests included antisepsis and disinfection, subjects for which he is internationally known. His term as Chair ended in January 1976 with the appointment of David J.

Today, most of the work in microbiology is done using methods from biochemistry and genetics . It is also related to pathology , as many microorganisms are pathogens. Microbiologists have made many fundamental contributions to biology , especially in the fields of biochemistry, genetics, and cell biology . Microbes have many traits that make them ideal model organisms They are small, therefore they do not consume many resources Some have very short generation times (~30 minutes for E. coli Cells can easily survive in isolation from other cells They can reproduce by mitotic division, allowing for the propagation of genetically identical ( clonal ) populations. They may be frozen for long periods of time. Even if 90% of the cells are killed by the freezing process, there are millions of cells in a milliliter of liquid culture.

The study of Neisseria meningitidis (the meningococcus) has progressed from the beginning of the last century until today. The cause of meningitis remained unknown until the late 19th century. With the rapid progression of laboratory methods and the development of bacteriology from an art into a science, microbiologists made repeated attempts to isolate an organism from patients who died of meningitis. The breakthrough came in 1887 when a coccoid bacterium was isolated from meningeal exudate. The organism was called Diplococcus intracellularis meningitidis which later became known as Neisseria meningitidis Stuart Clarke FIBMS and Puli V

Any part of the human body, whether tissue or fluid can be examined, and these tissue or fluid swabs are inoculated onto culture media to allow the micro-organisms to grow after incubation. Tests are carried out to determine the identity of the organism, and the sensitivity of an organism to a range of currently used antibiotics. This information is given to the doctor who will make a decision on the correct management and care of the patient. The environmental section examines samples of faeces, food and water for the presence of organisms that cause food poisoning. The immunology section deals with the detection of antigens and/or antibodies present in blood samples due to infection with an organism or disease process such as Rubella or HIV.

The Normark Department Early History (return to top) The Department of assigned 121 hours of instructions in bacteriology and 44 hours in immunology. The lecture hours for bacteriology increased to 168 hours in 1930 with only one additional instructor appointed. There was slow growth during the next 15 years; by 1945 the Department had one full professor, three assistant professors and one instructor when Bronfenbrenner retired in 1952. In 1946, two members of the Department, Al Hershey and Sol Spiegelman, were invited to present lectures at the annual Cold Spring Harbor Symposium. The conference that year was on "Heredity and Variation in Microorganisms" and it proved to be a historic meeting that marked the beginnings of molecular genetics. In those days, Cold Spring Harbor could not provide traveling expenses and Bronfenbrenner wrote to the Dean of the Medical School requesting funds, noting that "it would be very embarrassing to them (Hershey and Spiegelman) to write (to Demerec at CHS) saying they could not attend unless their expenses are paid." The Dean agreed to provide the funds Ð $100 to each! The Kornberg Department (return to top) The most notable event in the research activities o the Department during this period was the discovery of the DNA polymerase for which Arthur Kornberg received the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1959. For his later contributions to the newly developing field of recombinant DNA Technology, Paul Berg received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1980.

REMARKS FROM THE CHAIRMAN HISTORY STAFF LISTING DEPARTMENTAL AFFAIRS NEWSLETTERS CURRENT DEPARTMENTAL COMMITTEES CURRENT DEPARTMENTAL GRADUATE SCHOOL COMMITTEES HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF MICROBIOLOGY AND IMMUNOLOGY The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston was established in 1891 as the Medical Department of the University of Texas. It comprises at present four separate health science-related schools and two institutes for advanced study, with the School of Medicine being the oldest medical school within the State of Texas. The institution has a great and longstanding tradition of training physicians who provide medical care to Texans and for advancing knowledge in the field of medicine. Dr. David Niesel Dr. Stanley M. Lemon held the Chair in Microbiology and Immunology from 1997 - 2000 at which time he assumed the role of Dean of Medicine for the University. He received his M.D. degree from the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, and before coming to Galveston served as Professor of Medicine and Microbiology and Immunology, and Chief of the Division of Infectious Diseases at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He is known internationally for his research on the molecular virology of human hepatitis viruses. With his arrival at UTMB, the Department acquired additional laboratory space and added additional faculty with interests in molecular virology and cellular immunology. Interactions with the

Next School of Microbiology (1965 - 1996) The University of Melbourne Related Entries Function: Administrative Body Location: Parkville and Heidelberg, Victoria, Australia The School of Microbiology at the University of Melbourne was established in 1965 when the former Department of Bacteriology moved from the old medical school building (now, the southern part of the Potter Gallery complex) to the new medical complex near the corner of Royal Parade and Grattan St. The title, "School of Microbiology" was justified on the grounds that it had two sections - the campus department and a sub-department at the Austin Hospital under Professor David Gray. At the time, the Austin's new professor of medicine, Austin Doyle, had argued strongly for a significnt expansion of the hospital's Clinical Sciences building. The Professor of Bacteriology, Syd Rubbo, had bitterly opposed the founding of sub-departments (in three subject areas; pathology, microbiology and pharmacology) at the Austin, largely on the grounds of cost. When the three subjects were re-positioned into the third year of the curriculum in 1975, the rationale for the "School of Microbiology" designation was removed. The title was revised to the Department of Microbiology and Immunology in the mid-1990s.

Case 199 Rectal Mass Contributed by Kevin D. Horn, MD A. William Pasculle, PhD Uma N. M. Rao, MD Published on line in June 1999 PATIENT HISTORY: The patient is a 78 year old man with a recent history of a moderately differentiated rectal adenocarcinoma. The carcinoma was successfully resected, with negative surgical margins and no evidence of nodal metastases. The patient did well following his surgery, but followup colonoscopy 1 year following surgery noted a 1.1 cm area of the rectal wall which protruded above the surrounding mucosa, with flattening of the overlying mucosa and a firm texture. No other mucosal abnormalities were noted in the exam. The lesion was noted to occupy an area near the original resection site, and, being suspicious for a recurrence, was resected.
