In honor of the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, this exhibit highlights four breakthroughs that sparked their own revolutions and transformed medicine forever: the development of modern epidemiology, the invention of vaccination, the advancement of surgical anesthesia, and the discovery of X-rays. Meet at the library circulation desk.
