Abstract
On 15–16 March 2002, friends, colleagues, and fellows of Maxwell Finland gather in Boston to celebrate the 100th anniversary of his birth. The occasion marks the dedication of the Maxwell Finland Conference Room at the Countway Medical Library, Harvard Medical School, Boston, and a scientific program highlighting the contemporary importance of his contributions. His career in infectious diseases spanned more than 50 years, from his appointment as the Pneumonia Resident at Boston City Hospital in 1928 until he left the hospital in 1983 and died in October 1987. A plaque in the Maxwell Finland Laboratory for Infectious Diseases at the Boston Medical Center summarizes his accomplishments:Keywords
