Abstract
THE Report of the Director, Dr. George Bachman, of the School of Tropical Medicine of the University of Puerto Rico, gives a summary of the teaching and research carried out in the School during the year ended June, 1935. Researches include important work on vitamins, tuberculosis, and parasitic diseases; a bibliography of published papers is attached. Reference is made to the regretted death of Prof. Bailey Ashford, professor of tropical medicine and mycology, best known, perhaps, for his work on sprue. The School works in collaboration with Columbia University, and full details of administration are given.
