You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Arnold Wing, Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston MA.jpg|thumb|right|238px|((center|Arnold Wing))]]
The '''Tufts University School of Medicine''' is the [[medical school]] of [[Tufts University]], a [[Private university|private]] [[research university]] in [[Massachusetts]]. It was established in 1893 and is located on the university's health sciences campus in downtown [[Boston]]. It has clinical affiliations with numerous doctors and researchers in the United States and around the world, as well as with its affiliated hospitals in both Massachusetts (including [[Tufts Medical Center]], [[St. Elizabeth's Medical Center (Boston)|St. Elizabeth's Medical Center]], [[Lahey Hospital & Medical Center|Lahey Hospital and Medical Center]] and [[Baystate Medical Center]]), and Maine ([[Maine Medical Center]]).

==History==
The School of Medicine was established by vote of the Trustees of Tufts College on April 22, 1893. It was formed by the secession of seven faculty from the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Boston, a school which was formed in 1880. These "original seven" faculty members successfully lobbied to establish a medical school under the auspices of Tufts College. The new school, which was designated the Medical School of Tufts College, opened its doors in October 1893 with eighty students. The school was, from the very beginning, coeducational, and of the twenty-two students who graduated that first year, eight were women. When the trustees changed the name of the institution from "Tufts College" to "Tufts University" in 1954, the medical school became the "Tufts University School of Medicine."

The Tufts Medical Center, the principal teaching hospital of TUSM, came into existence in 1930 through the alliance of the [[Boston Dispensary]], the Boston Floating Hospital for Children, and the Trustees of Tufts College. The New England Medical Center (NEMC) was established as a non-profit corporation to coordinate the administrative activities of its constituent organizations.

In 1946, the Pratt Diagnostic Clinic, an extension of the Boston Dispensary established in 1938, joined NEMC. In 1950, when the Medical School and Dental School relocated to Harrison Avenue, the NEMC became known as the New England Medical Center Hospital. The name of the institution changed to the Tufts New England Medical Center (T-NEMC) in 1968, to New England Medical Center in the 1980s, back to T-NEMC in 2002, and ultimately to the Tufts Medical Center in 2008. Over the years, the governing boards of [[Tufts University]] and the medical center negotiated a series of affiliation agreements. Tufts University and Tufts Medical Center are separate corporate entities. However, the president and several other senior officers of Tufts University are ''ex officio'' members of the board of directors of the Medical Center.

==Organization and degree programs==
The Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM), established in 1893, is under the supervision of a dean, appointed by the [[University president|president]] and the [[provost (education)|provost]], with the approval of the Trustees of Tufts College (the university's governing board). The dean is responsible for all aspects of the school's operations, including medical education, admissions, faculty appointments, clinical relationships, and various affiliated research centers and institutes.

The TUSM faculty is divided into seven basic science departments and eighteen clinical science departments. The clinical faculty have primary staff appointments at the [[Tufts Medical Center]], Baystate Hospital, the [[United States Department of Veterans Affairs|VA Boston Medical Healthcare System]], and [[Faulkner Hospital]], and seven other teaching hospitals in Massachusetts. The basic science faculty, on the other hand, are full-time members of the Tufts University faculty.

TUSM offers a four-year curriculum leading to the degree of [[doctor of medicine]] as well as several combined degree programs: MD/[[master of public health|MPH]], MD/[[Doctor of Philosophy|PhD]], the MD/[[Master of Science|MS]] in [[engineering]], a joint program with the [[Tufts University School of Engineering|School of Engineering]], an MD/[[master of business administration|MBA]] in Health Management in collaboration with [[Brandeis University]], and an MD/[[Master of Arts|MALD]] with the [[Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy]]. A final unconventional degree program is the early acceptance joint BA/MD program offered exclusively to undergraduates at Tufts University, College of the Holy Cross, Boston College, Brandeis University, and Northeastern. The School of Medicine also offers three free–standing programs: a master of public health degree offered in collaboration with the [[Tufts University School of Arts and Sciences|School of Arts and Sciences]] and the [[Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy]] and has four tracks that include: a Bachelors/MPH offered with the School of Arts and Sciences, a [[doctor of jurisprudence|JD]]/MPH offered in collaboration with [[Northeastern University School of Law]], an MS in Nutrition/MPH offered with the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, and DVM/MPH offered with the School of Veterinary Medicine. The school also offers as a Master of Science in health communication and a Master of Science in pain research, education and policy in collaboration with the Health Institute/Tufts Medical Center.

In fall 2004, TUSM enrolled approximately 700 full-time students in first professional degree programs (MD, MD/MPH, MD/PhD, MD/MBA, MD/MALD, and MD/MS) and approximately 40 full-time students in graduate degree programs (MS and MPH).

In fall 2007, TUSM began a new masters program (MBS) as part of the Public Health and Professional Degree program, offering a Masters of Science in Biomedical Sciences, with approximately 120 full-time students annually.

==Facilities==
The Tufts University School of Medicine and the [[Tufts University Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences|Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences]] are located in five adjoining research buildings along Boston's Harrison Avenue and a teaching and administrative building, the Center for Medical Education. The newest addition is the $65&nbsp;million, nine story, Jaharis Family Center for Biomedical and Nutrition Sciences. The Jaharis Family Center provides research laboratories and offices for many faculty members and their students, postdoctoral fellows and technical staff. The building also includes offices and laboratory facilities for the Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy and the Department of Family and Community Medicine in TUSM. TUSM and the Biomedical School are adjacent to the Tufts Medical Center, the School of Dental Medicine, and Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, and across the street from the Jean Meyer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging.

== Affiliate teaching hospitals ==
The Tufts University School of Medicine does not directly own or operate any hospitals and instead relies on affiliate hospitals for clinical education and patient care. While medical students can spend time at any of the affiliate centers, they primarily complete their clinical experiences at [[Tufts Medical Center]].<ref>((cite web|url=https://medicine.tufts.edu/education/doctor-medicine/clinical-affiliates|title=Clinical Affiliates|website=medicine.tufts.edu))</ref>
