5- J In 1910, Abraham Flexner published his report on the ranking and classification of medical schools, with Tulane ranked as one of the top three Southern institutions. At that time, Tulane ' s medical faculty included such prominent physicians as Dr. Rudolph Matas, a vascular surgeon, and Dr. Isadore Dyer, a well noted dermatologist, who was instrumental in the development of the leprosarium in Carville, Louisiana. The modern day history of The Tulane University School of Medicine continues to be one of expansion and growth, not only of its physical facilities, but also of its research and training programs. Few medical schools can equal the excellent clinical training experience afforded by Charity Hospital, Tulane Medical Center, and the private institutions in the city. Paul Tulane would certainly be proud of the many medical students who have graduated from the university bearing his name. l-in- uh ' jh ' j t i tki»k Reference: The Rudolph Matas History of ytedicine in Louisiana, by John Duffy.
