Always wanted to avoid those expensive Open Access costs? Now you can! If you are an author (faculty, staff and student) affiliated with Weill Cornell Medicine, you are eligible for full coverage of APC and Authors ChoiceTM publication fee and all additional costs for articles published in full Open Access and hybrid journals (subscription journals with an Open Access option). Here’s what you need to do:
It is often said that “necessity is the mother of invention” and in times of crises, accommodations must be made in order to adapt to uncertain situations. In the aftermath of World War I, Weill Cornell Medicine offered an elective course in military medicine in an attempt to prepare its medical students to enter into the military.
To fulfill its mission, the Samuel J. Wood Library must maintain a safe and comfortable environment that is conducive to study and the effective use of information resources. Library users are expected to show consideration for other users and staff members.
Access to the library is granted to the library user only.
The Collaboration Room is located on the main floor of the Library. It may be reserved for professional and educational activities by registered library users. Reservations should be made by completing the Library Collaboration Room Reservation Form. Priority is given to groups from the Medical College.

For weeks New Yorkers have seen images of their city spaces being converted into triage sites and field hospitals to help with the overflow of suspected COVID-19 cases. The Javits Center and Columbia University’s Baker Field Athletic Complex, typically sites of conventions or football games, have been taken over by field hospitals. Paved spaces, usually packed with vehicles or people, are now covered in triage tents to screen low-risk patients outside of emergency rooms.
In response to the growing threat of COVID-19, medical schools throughout New York have provided fourth-year medical students with the option to graduate early. While this choice to accelerate commencement may appear unprecedented, it is not the first time Weill Cornell Medicine has needed to fast-track the education of students to serve the clinical needs of others! Throughout its history, Weill Cornell Medicine has been faced with major challenges that have forced not just the administration, but also the student body, to rise above and overcome significant obstacles.

Musical and theatrical shows by students have a long tradition at Weill Cornell Medicine. Throughout the college’s history, medical and nursing students performed plays, skits, and musical numbers for the entertainment of their peers and professors. As an example of one type of performance, the first annual Christmas Review Show in 1958 featured funny skits and musical numbers. In the photograph depicted above, students from the class of 1976 practice singing for the Christmas Review Show in 1973. Today students still enjoy an annual show, which is now held in the spring!
