Medical Schools and Academic Medical Centers

Institutions whose primary function is training physicians and other health professionals, from a single medical school to a combined university medical faculty and its associated academic health system. Belongs here: named medical schools, university medical faculties and academic medical centers built around a teaching mission, including the first Western medical school, Schola Medica Salernitana. Does not belong here: a hospital that trains residents as one part of a primarily clinical mission, grouped under hospitals and medical centers, or a body that accredits or represents medical education rather than delivering it, grouped under professional and regulatory medical bodies.
