Parallel World Pharmacy

Volume 3 - Ch 15.3

That night at the dinner table, Falma discussed with Bruno.

Sure, there were many times when I felt constrained by the rules of the medical school

There are limits to just prescribing medicine. We need to train doctors who know can treat patients using injections or IV drips or the like

Bruno moodily stroked his beard. He understood that new methods of treatment required new frameworks.

Palle had an incredulous look on his face, but Bruno turned in favor of Falmas idea.

Lets arrange a meeting with the faculty immediately

After meeting with the faculty and discussing with Salerno Medical School, it was agreed that the Imperial Medical School and Salerno Medical School would merge into one single school.

The new layout is like this:

Department of Medicine Previously the Salerno Medical School

Department of Pharmacology A faculty based on divine arts and traditional herbs

Department of Drug Discovery The faculty that Falma is the dean of. Responsible for dealing with new drugs

Department of Clinical Laboratory Services For training new lab technicians (those who perform clinical tests on microbes and blood as well as pathological examinations)

In total, there are 4 departments.

Falma was in charge of the two-year curriculum for all the departments already, so in this regard his responsibilities didnt increase. All that changed was that instead of lecturing students of the Department of Drug Discovery in a classroom, now he would be lecturing them in an auditorium.

After all the students have been taught the fundamentals of medicine, its better to focus on a specific facultys curriculum. Then, after all the students understand the fundamentals of medicine, they can verify and select the correct treatment for what was once attributed to evil spirits in this world.

It was good to try many different things, so in a few years there will be a lot of specialists.

This was a bigger ordeal than I expected

Falma was dumbstruck. Ellen was also shocked.

Thats just how much teacher-sensei is betting on Falma-kun, right?

TL: Those department names might end up changing if someone with a medical background knows what theyre actually called in the real world

In time, it might even be possible to raise students and doctors who are on the same level as those on modern day Earth. Then the whole continent, or maybe even the whole world, can enjoy the same level of medical treatment that the imperial capital currently has.

That was Falmas hope.

Little by little, Ill do my best

And so after two years San Fleuve Imperial Medical School, which used to educate pharmacists, was renamed to the San Fleuve Imperial College of Medicine and reborn as the foremost location for medicine and pharmacology within the San Fleuve empire.
