According to Coley (2001), p.403,
in 1783 George Fordyce (1736-1802) and John Hunter (1728-1793)
founded the
Society for the Improvement of Medical and Chirurgical Knowledge
in London.
This was a small group of only nine members; it later grew to twelve.
Coley (2001), p.409, footnote 56, indicates that the Society had gone down to ten members in 1812, and was dissolved in 1818. |
