SREF Site

To follow the trend I shall talk of the history of medicine for my SREF site. among the frequent old scalpels, I was surprised to not see a reference to the grave robbing that happened to fill the need for cadavers. By the ones wishing to understand the anatomy of the human body. I was also surprised that there was a display about plastic surgery. The reconstruction of the nose specifically. 
Another section was the development of modern day pills. Having just walked though the mortar and pedestal apothecaries before them showed their similarly. A nice touch at this point was to also have the first birth control pills and information of the clinical study that happened on rabbits before human testing.
