Featuring the Medical School exhibition which is being held in Holden Chapel, original home of the school, is the miniature model of the first operation performed under either at the Massachusetts General Hospital in 1846. Nearby are collections of all types of medical instruments, ranging from the very crude ones of early days up to the highly developed ones of today.
