GRADUATE STUDY IN VIENNA The ninth special Course of Post Graduate Study in Ophthalmology in Vienna has been announced, to be given October 1 to December 6, 1932, at the Eye Clinics I and II of the Allgemeines Krankenhaus. Professors Mellor, Lindner, A. Fuchs, A. Schtiller (Roentgen rays), O. Hirsch (Hypo physis and Sinuses), and Doctors Bachstez, Urbanek, Sallmann, Fischer and nine others, will take part in the teaching. For the students "a preliminary knowledge of ophthalmology is presup posed," and "in refraction only ad vanced work will be given." The class is limited to seventeen, and applica tions are accepted in order of priority. The entire course is given in English. This course has been taken by so many English-speaking ophthalmolo gists, that those who desire will be able to learn something of it from acquain tances, who have taken it in former years. It announces a total of 332 hours. Something of its character can be
judged by the assignments of time to a few of the more important subjects. Refraction and skiascopy with cylin ders has 14 hours; and practical skias copy with cylinders 8 hours; operations 10; histology 28; ophthalmoscopy 27; and also with red-free light 26; exter nal diseases, under two teachers, 47 hours. The greatest benefit from such a course will be received by those who have already worked in other clinics and in private practice devoted to this specialty. Graduate teaching is neces sary in preparing to practice a spe cialty. The Vienna intensive course must be recognized as an established institution of importance for the gradu ate teaching of ophthalmology. Edward Jackson.
NEUROLOGY AND OPHTHALMOLOGY The deeper mysteries of the neurolo gic realm, even as they relate to the eye, are unexplored by most ophthal mologists. Without a clear mental pic■62
