This exhibition celebrates the re-opening of the J T Wilson Museum after its recent refurbishment. The curators and architects have combined forces to provide a striking modern environment for anatomical study which does justice to the collection built up over more than a century by our anatomy staff and students. With the opening of the medical school and the arrival of Professor Anderson Stuart, anatomy took a central place in our medical curriculum. In 1890, James Thomas Wilson was appointed as Foundation Challis Professor of Anatomy. Since Anderson Stuart’s time there have been a series of Professors of Anatomy, each who have made significant contributions to Anatomy within the University and elsewhere. Their biographies and achievements are depicted alongside a photo gallery of the first 60 years of prosectors. Exhibition: From October 1 2008 to end March 2009.

Written by Drs Lise Mellor, Vanessa Witton and Professor Yvonne Cossart. Enquiries Dr Lise Mellor 9036 3366.

Adoring the walls of the Medical Library is a selection of reproductions of caricatures drawn by Lionel Lindsay of Faculty members in 1916. The original caricatures were commissioned and paid for by medical students to illustrate the pages of the Sydney University Medical Journal and Senior Year Books. They were reprinted voluminously over the years and the originals now rest in the University of Sydney Art Collection. Exhibition: Permanent exhibition as part of Medical Heritage Trail. To purchase copies of these Lionel Lindsay caricatures click here. Funds raised will go to the restoration of MedSoc photographic archives. Enquiries: Dr Lise Mellor 61 2 9036 3366.
