Item Celebrating the Legacy of the Institute of Psychiatric Research (IPR), and Moving Brain Research Forward(2022-06-22) Lahiri, Debomoy K.; Nurnberger, John I.The Institute for Psychiatric Research (IPR) at Indiana University (IU) School of Medicine was a free-standing four-story building on the main IUPUI campus (791 Union Drive) just east of Eskenazi Hospital's present location. It was built in 1955-56 by the State of Indiana to house the laboratories of neuroscience investigators operating under the leadership of the IU Department of Psychiatry. For nearly six decades IPR was the home of innovative research (primarily NIH-funded) in neurochemistry, electrophysiology, genetics, neuroanatomy, animal behavior, and molecular biology. For many years it was also the home of neuroscience education on the IUPUI campus. In 2014 the IPR building was demolished as part of the construction of Eskenazi hospital to replace the venerable Wishard hospital campus. IPR faculty relocated to the IU Neuroscience Building at 320 West 15th Street, where they now continue their work along with researchers at Stark Neurosciences Research Institute and other departments. Former IPR faculty Debomoy Lahiri and John Nurnberger have assembled a history of IPR along with illustrations of the building and the faculty and staff who worked there and contributed significantly to psychiatric research.Item The Institute of Psychiatric Research: A Historical Perspective from the 1950s to the 2000s(2021-09-13) Lahiri, Debomoy K.Presentation on the history of the Indiana University School of Medicine's Institute of Psychiatric Research (1957-2013), a free-standing center developed by the State of Indiana to investigate the causes of mental illness.

Professor Ferid Murad, who was awarded the 1998 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his work with nitric oxide and cyclic GMP, also spoke at the event. The background photo depicts a sketch of human primary brain neuronal cultures derived by laboratory researchers at the Institute of Psychiatric Research.Item Celebrating Dr. Amelia R. Keller: Pioneering Physician, Educator, Suffragist, and Public Health Advocate(2022-04-19) Pieczko, Brandon T.Exhibit developed by the Ruth Lilly Medical Library for the dedication of an Indiana State Historical Marker honoring Dr. Amelia R.

In 1971, the Indiana General Assembly passed a bill to create and fund a distributed model for medical education for which IUSM was responsible, an innovative approach to implementing a statewide medical education program. IUSM became one of the first U.S. medical schools to implement what is today known as a regional medical campus model. This regional medical campus system has permitted IUSM to expand enrollment based on national and local concerns about physician shortages, increase access to care locally, support expansion of graduate medical education, and provide opportunities for research and scholarship by faculty and students statewide. This effort was made possible by partnerships with other universities and health care systems across the state and the support of local community and state leaders. The model is a forward-thinking and cost-effective way to educate physicians for service in the state of Indiana and is applicable to others. This article highlights milestones in IUSM’s 50-year history of regional medical education, describes the development of the regional medical campus model, recognizes significant achievements over the years, shares lessons learned, and discusses considerations for the future of medical education.Item Indiana University School of Medicine Scholarly Concentrations Program Annual Report 2021(Indiana University School of Medicine, 2021) Indiana University School of Medicine; Wallach, Paul M.The Indiana University School of Medicine is confident that the curriculum prepares all future healers to transform health across the state and beyond. Many students come into medical school with varied interests related to medicine. Maybe they worked in an underserved rural clinic or still reflect on bioethics discussions from one of their favorite undergraduate courses. The Scholarly Concentrations Program offers medical students the opportunity to pursue their passions through coursework and scholarship in an academic setting that runs throughout medical school yet doesnot extend the time it takes to complete a medical degree.Item Building Bridges in Medical Education: 3rd Annual Indiana University School of Medicine Education Day Program(2022-04-28) Indiana University School of MedicineProgram for the 3rd annual Indiana University School of Medicine Education Day held at Hine Hall Conference Center on the IUPUI campus on April 28, 2022.
