MUHC Research Firsts
L’histoire de la recherche dans les hôpitaux de McGill est impressionnante. Jetez d’abord un coup d’œil sur notre liste de recherches pour voir quelques-unes des percées qui ont contribué à amener la médecine dans notre ère moderne et comment cet héritage se perpétue depuis la création de l’Institut de recherche du CUSM en 1999.
