Transforming medical education: U-M scientist changed the way medicine was taught

Throughout its history, Michigan Medicine has been the home for groundbreaking research, novel patient care practices and cutting-edge educational opportunities.

One individual who perfectly exemplified the influential work performed in Ann Arbor was Frederick Novy, M.D., Sc.D. — a turn-of-the-century scientist who completely changed the way medicine was taught.

In honor of the U-M bicentennial, Headlines is honoring Novy and all the people, places and events that have shaped Michigan Medicine over the years.
