Excerpt from Studies From the Laboratories of the Department of Surgery, Vol. 2: 1910-1917 About 1905 the need was felt for a laboratory of Surgical Pathology in which studies upon the tissues could be made. To fill this want a desk was provided for a time in the Laboratory of Pathology. On Lincoln's birthday, 1910, a Laboratory of Surgical Pathology was opened, and in 1911 a new and spacious laboratory devoted to Surgical Research was completed. Much time has been required to organize and to develop the work of these two laboratories, now a unit in the Department of Surgery. At first, chiefly methods of technique were studied. With the addition of the laboratory of Surgical Pathology and the cooperation of its staff, studies in microscopical morphology were commenced. As a result, research workers have the opportunity of confirming with the aid of the microscope many of their gross observations of structural and functional changes which are the result of experiment. In this way more accurate observations are possible and more careful work results. There are conducted also, studies of the tissues in inflammation, in injury and infec tion; similarly the many and varied tumors are examined and classified always with the one end in view of increasing the scope of investigation. Particularly, research through the use of an incubator in which tissue cultures have been grown, has widened the fields of investigation in surgery. In order to make real progress in the study of surgery, knowl edge of medicine is required, as well as a knowledge of biology, of chemistry and of physics. On account of this extension in the science of surgery, workers in these several branches are meces sary and some of them at present are on the laboratory staff. With these increases in personnel, there is a constant demand for additional apparatus and the necessary room for its instal lation.
