Today:
- Read through the following documents and start to create a running list of historical individuals (and what they brought to the health industry), important advances and discoveries in medicine, new beliefs or changes in thinking/knowledge, trends in the industry, and any other information you deem important.
- Do not just copy down what you find in the boxes. Read and pick out what you find important!
- Be sure to record the time period of the event/individual. You should also record where you found the information (the document and the page, unless you are finding information on an outside webpage, then record the website)
