Museum in Madras Medical College

Posted on: 17/Mar/2015 2:23:55 PM
The anatomy section that was functioning in Madras Medical College is going to be a museum now. Former students have donated Rs 2 Lakhs for this purpose. Madras Medical College has been shifted to the old jail premises. Outpatient departments and other medical departments are functioning in the old college buildings. The building which is 120 years old has also a museum. In the 1940s, it is understood that the museum was the largest in the whole of Asia.
 
Dr Sudha Seshayyan, Director, MMC Institute of Anatomy while speaking about this said, “Museum would have exhibits of evolution of medicine at MMC, rare photographs, British-era certificates and documents, history of doyens of the alumni and historical events of the college. Also old equipment, medical devices would occupy a place.”
