University of Florida College of Medicine - Retrospectroscope Yearbook (Gainesville, FL)

SECOND YEAR The second year is devoted to the understanding of the abnormal proc- esses of the human body and mind. The student attempts to find the an- swer to the question: how does man function in disease states? The study of disease begins in strict academic fashion with the pres- entation of various affiictions and their theoretical mumbo-jumbo causes. But after a few months of observation and dissection in the- autopsy suite, the power of disease and the inadequacies of modern medicine as- sume more than academic interest. The little tiny bugs that can create disease are studied: bugs you see with a microscope and bugs that you just think about. The medical student learns something of how the human body protects itself against these bugs and how these protective mechanisms when deranged can create their own diseases. e si .hvt,.f-r--.'- ,. -if -ww v p yi p wma., ?Q,,pr-QQ? ,r J, -.k 6.4 Q-gksw Q ,y, u ' 'M K M- .A ,' Q K 'ak a-ebbbzgxp FK pq 'sts Hi ':3QZ? rim as fi-e'n fp 's y N ,g I-'Q-7' V, :j QT ,Xyriiii-1 -q!fr,,taf'yyah.fHvgjs.,wasX.,,ss -2?..!sgfirwf jf W .Q Q35 iw'f'1,fs 4 'T sf?

Lili L!! E5 During our basic physiology course we had our 'drst contact with one of the great men at the Health Center. Dr. Lester R. Dragstedt is not only an ac- tive and aggressive researcher but also an excellent and stimulating teacher. At that time he was the only member of the National Academy of Sciences in the state and a much sought after speaker. Even with these responsibilities he found time to teach an elective course in experimental surgery. During this time we repeated several of the classical exper- iments in gastrointestinal physiology. It was his purpose to teach us that an open mind and the abil- ity for keen observation are two of the most impor- tant assets of a good physician and scientist. I am sure we will always be grateful for our stimulating and instructive experience with Dr. Dragstedt. Rudy Gertner 4' +- if E is E .. R' l HP if 5 'ii'
