  • Academic Life

150 years for a medicine always in motion

In 1876, the Faculty of Medicine in Geneva opened its doors. Its history is inextricably linked to that of Geneva itself: born amid the scientific effervescence of the 19th century, it grew alongside the city, embraced its ambitions, and helped forge its position at the heart of the city and in touch with the world. A century and a half of discoveries and projects.
