According to Nader Sadeghi, MD, director of head and neck surgery at George Washington University in Washington, D.C, many symptoms of nasal cavity and paranasal sinus cancer are similar to those of the common cold.
Elizabeth Blackwell (1707[1] â1758) was a Scottish botanical illustrator and author who was best known as both the artist and engraver for the plates of A Curious Herbal, published between 1737 and 1739.
Elizabethâs graduating thesis was on the topic of typhus and in its conclusion she linked physical health with socio-moral responsibility. On 23 January 1849, the 28-year-old Elizabeth Blackwell became the first woman to achieve a medical degree in the United States. As she was granted her degree, Charles Lee, the dean of the college, stood up from his chair and made a courtly bow in her direction.
