Early 20th Century Reforms of Medical Education Worldwide
Directing the medical education program was Flexner, who became Secretary of the GEB in 1913.
Records that Abraham Flexner became Secretary of the General Education Board in 1913 and directed its medical education program, that the first grants went to Johns Hopkins in 1913 for its clinical departments, and that Rockefeller Sr. then earmarked "a further $45,000,000 for the GEB's program in medical education." Also records GEB support for Meharry Medical College from 1916.
