Description

Portrait of Sir William Osler, MD (1849-1919). Osler was the first physician-in-chief of Johns Hopkins Hospital and one of the Big Four founding professors of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Among his many accomplishments, he established medical residencies as the training standard, taught medical students through bedside instruction on the wards rather than lectures, and founded medical library associations in both Great Britain and North America.
