In addition to the photographs we included in the print edition of Yale Medicine, we have prepared an online gallery of photographs we just didn’t have room to publish. The photographs, in print and online, acknowledge all the people who make the School of Medicine a leader in education, research and clinical care, from custodians, secretaries, and librarians, to students, postdocs, scientists, lab techs, and deans. Our thanks go out to our team of talented photographers and to all those across the medical school who so graciously opened their offices, labs, classrooms, and operating rooms to us.

Over the 13 years that Maggie Chang has been selling food from her cart on Cedar Street, she has refined her offerings to reflect the tastes of her clientele. "A lot of doctors like vegetarian food. I changed a lot of stuff to vegetarian style," she says. Thursdays and Fridays she offers fish dishes, and her cuisine includes mustard greens, Japanese pumpkin, and Malaysian-style curried chicken.

Once a month throughout the academic year, the Medical Student Council meets in the Hope Building for talks on issues of interest to students and faculty. September's meeting always features a talk by Director of Admissions Richard Silverman, who discusses the newest class of medical students.

Finding more space at the medical school is a constant challenge, as is upgrading existing space to meet the requirements of new labs. In September crews worked on the ninth floor of the Lippard Laboratory for Clinical Investigation, installing HVAC systems. Fred Cassidento, of Environmental Engineering; Jack George, an electrician at ESC Controls; and Steve Fortier, foreman with ESC Controls, looked over plans for the project. Workers installed tubing in the space, allocated to the neurology department.

Since the mid-1970s the Wednesday Evening Clinic, founded by Morris Dillard, has offered medical students an opportunity to provide primary care under the supervision of Yale attendings. As one student described the clinic, "It's the only place in med school where you get to see the same patient again and again."

Medical students work out in the fitness center in the basement of Harkness dormitory. The center, equipped with weights, treadmills, and other exercise machines, opened in February 2000. A gift from the class of 1958, the new gym replaces an airless weight room in the basement that was for years the only exercise facility available at the medical school.
