 == Background ==
-The establishment of the Polish School of Medicine in March 1941 was a unique wartime academic initiative by the University of Edinburgh and the Polish Government. The idea of a Polish medical school as a part of the University of Edinburgh came from Lt.Col. Professor [[Francis Albert Eley Crew]] who was Professor of [[Animal Genetics]] at the university and Commanding Officer of the Military Hospital at Edinburgh Castle. Also involved from the university side were the Dean of the Medical Faculty, Professor [[Sir Sydney Alfred Smith]] and with [[Sir Thomas Henry Holland]], the Principal of the University who put the idea into motion through the University authorities. Representing the Polish Government was the Commander in Chief of the Polish Forces and Prime Minister General Władysław Sikorski, who gave his whole-hearted support and Lt.Col. Dr [[Antoni Jurasz]], Professor of Surgery at the University of Poznań, who became the main organiser and first dean of the Faculty on the Polish side.
