The Albert Dock Hospital, London: the original site (in 1899) of Tropical Medicine as a new discipline.

G C Cook1, A J Webb.   

Abstract

The London School of Tropical Medicine, and indeed the 'new' discipline of tropical medicine, originated in 1899 at the Albert Dock Hospital - situated in London's east-end. The founder of the discipline was Patrick Manson - with a great deal of political assistance from the British Secretary of State for the Colonies (Joseph Chamberlain). The hospital (originally opened in 1890) was rebuilt in 1937-1938 and ultimately demolished in 1993.
