The School of Medicine

pad_medical_school

The medical faculty of Padua has been recognized across Europe as the most rigorous training ground for physicians since the university was founded, combining systematic anatomical study with clinical observation in a way that the great Arab compilations alone could never provide. The students who pass through its dissection theater carry an understanding of the body more detailed and more precise than any other school in the Christian world could offer, and the physicians they become have changed how illness is understood and treated in every city they subsequently serve. Because our doctors trust what they observe, plague passes more lightly through our people than through those who rely on superstition, and the university deepens the literacy of every educated class it touches.
