Aspects first debuted in 1977.
Aspects is the official publication of SIU School of Medicine. Then Dean and Provost of SIU Medicine, Dr. Richard Moy, welcomed readers:
“While this new quarterly can and will serve many functions, more than anything else it reflects our desire to reach out to our friends.”
We hope that we continue to deliver on this promise, and welcome you to the new digital Aspects publication.
