      US AA027 · Collection · 1928-2008

      This small collection centers on Sylvia Barker's life at The Mount Sinai Hospital. The Reprints, etc. are photocopies that were sent to the Mount Sinai Archives by the Foundation of the New York State Nursing Association in 1993. Included there are copies of papers that she submitted as a student at Teacher's College. Similar items are found in the Teacher's College file. The By-laws found here are of interest because they show the organizations that Miss Barker was involved with over the years. The most unique component of the collection is the files that she created about the Class of 1936 of The Mount Sinai Hospital School of Nursing, her class. She served as the lynchpin of the class, trying to gather information about classmates for reunions and round robin letters. There is also an interesting script for the Class Show that was put on in 1936.

      These are the syllabi produced by faculty members of Mount Sinai School of Medicine. The copies for the undergraduate medical program were produced and distributed by the Office of Medical Education. The syllabi from the Graduate School of Biological Sciences were distributed by the Dean’s Office. Many of the Archives’ copies of the early years are bound volumes that were created by the Levy Library.

      There are two series of records here: syllabi for the undergraduate medical education program and syllabi for the Graduate School of Biological Sciences, today’s Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. The MD program syllabi provide information about the curriculum of Mount Sinai School of Medicine and how the subjects were presented to students. The syllabi primarily cover the courses in the first two years of medical school, with very few describing the clerkships found in the final two years. The syllabi for the first four years of the School’s existence are preserved in their entirety to show how the new school structured their coursework. After the early years, the Archives has generally only retained the paper syllabi for new courses as they were introduced. For non-basic science courses, the Archives has preserved a more complete selection of syllabi to illustrate how teaching on topics such as Student Well Being, Medical Ethics, and Sexual Assault has evolved over time. The Archives’ holdings were never complete, so this selection may also be missing items.

      In 2012, with the decommissioning of the WebEd learning management system, the Aufses Archives took custody of syllabus content stored in WebEd. All MD course content stored in WebEd was saved, but note that the subset of courses in WebEd may not reflect the entire MD course catalog for any particular year. The level of detail provided by the WebEd content for particular courses varies widely, from simple lecture schedules to elaborate content outlines. These items are arranged chronologically by academic year and span AY 2006-2007 to AY 2010-2011. The electronic collection of syllabus content also includes two additional electronic syllabi from AY 2001-2002 which were received in lieu of paper copies. This collection is a subdivision of the ISMMS Department of Medical Education community.

      The syllabi of courses in the Graduate School of Biological Sciences are electronic only. Syllabi from AY 2006-2007 to AY 2010-2011 were downloaded from WebEd during its decommissioning. An additional collection of syllabi from AY 2011-2012 was downloaded from the Blackboard learning management system, which replaced WebEd.

      Graduate School courses represented include content from the general PhD program, the Master of Public Health Program (which became the Graduate Program in Public Health in 2013), and the Masters in Clinical Research program. As with the MD syllabi, the Graduate School syllabus collection reflects what was stored in the WebEd and Blackboard systems at the time of retrieval, not the entire course catalog, and the level of detail of the syllabi varies widely.

      US AA149 · Collection · 1895 - 2016

      This small collection has five series: School of Nursing records, the Alumnae Association records, Alumnae Papers, Artifacts and Photographs. The School of Nursing series is 14 folders of basic information about the School, the highlights of which are the annual announcements catalogs (folders 2-5) outlining the entrance requirements and the curriculum, and the Triennium, the class yearbooks for 1951, 1952, 1955, 1957, 1968, 1973, and 1974. The proposal by the New York Infant Asylum to provide obstetric training is also of note as it provides a detailed list of areas of instruction for 1895 (folder 9). Student transcripts from 1941-1974 are also included in this collection; please see note under that series for details.

      Significant records in The Alumnae Association series are the annual reports for the Association and a nearly complete run of the Association’s Bulletin, providing news of its members and of the Hospital. (Note that a number of annual reports are published in particular Bulletin issues, which are clearly noted in the container list. Also note that an appendix listing all of the Bulletins in the collection, along with a list of all the directresses, can be found at https://archives.mssm.edu/downloads/aa149.pdf) Also of significance are the three volumes of Alumnae Rosters, the first of which contains a short history of the School. These books and the two volumes of the Alumnae Association annual reports are behind all the folders in box 2. Photographs of Alumnae are also included in the collection; however, they are filed in the larger St. Luke’s Hospital series of the Photograph Collection. A scrapbook of snap shots of student nurses around 1953-1955 is also found in the artifacts.

      The Alumnae Papers consists of materials donated by the School’s graduates and may include bulletins, pamphlets, yearbooks, artifacts such as uniforms or graduate pins, invitations and other materials. This series is arranged by donation date.

      Artifacts include a complete student nurse’s uniform, with its distinctive wool cape and the School's graduate pin.

      This website documents a seminar series given by the Department of Genetics and Genomics Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The seminar series was dedicated to bringing together colleagues in the NY metro region to start and strengthen interactions within the local scientific community, and discuss topics that delve into genomics technology and approaches that will deeply shape the future. The format was a 50-minute lecture followed by 30 minutes of moderated Q&A, and aimed to foster lively and thought provoking dialogue to engage young investigators as well as mentors in the application of genomics technologies and computational biology. The seminars were held between March and June, Spring 2015.
