Dear Colleagues, Members of the Faculty, Staff, and Students of the Faculty of Medicine
It is a great honor and a source of pride to belong to the Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria University. This faculty has a monumental past, a visionary present and a glorious future.
Thanks to research carried out in a wooden hut which stood on the northern corner of the site the faculty still occupies to this day, the cause of schistosomiasis, better known as bilharziosis, was first understood in 1851.
