I Can Hear Other People On My Walkie Talkie

Archives of the Museum Courtyard

The Museum for the History of the University is in itself an archive
represented not only manuscripts and other documents, but also, and for the most part, tools, appliances
, anatomical preparations and dry in wet and anatomical waxes, prepared for surgery, all intended to represent respectively
a physical principle, an anatomical structure of particular significance
, an access point or the expression of a surgical pathology as organ
difficult to prove on the living.
Even though it is the material collected various disciplines that have developed in
our university, there are two main sections Museum of the wealth of documentary material
: the section of the History of Medicine and the section of the History of Physics.

Section of the History of Medicine

The collected material includes documents prepared and ranging over a
time from the second decade of the seventeenth century, with the manuscripts of Gaspare Aselli
regarding the discovery of the vessels chiliferi up the first decades of the twentieth century and preparing students documents
of Camillo Golgi. Recent material is also present but has not yet been ordered
.
Of particular importance is the collection of manuscript volumes of Port Louis,
pathologist surgeon who was active in Pavia from 1825 to 1875, in a period that begins before
doctrine of Schleiden and Schwann cell (1838/39) and ends after the
formulation of the principles of cellular pathology by Rudolf Virchow (1858/60). In these volumes
is recorded throughout the clinical activity of the port, and many cases are reported with great precision, the symptoms presented by patients to describe the pathologic findings.
of most of these clinical cases the Museum also has its
card stock and the related anatomical parts, which contain the structural basis of its
diseases and organ system. This is a priceless cultural heritage of mirror
over 50 seats riding on acquisitions, extraordinary as those mentioned above, on which for some time
began studies by historians of medicine.
The collection of histological preparations that Eusebio Oehl
realized since the early years of the second half of the 800, is an archive of great value because it was just
Oehl with these preparations in Pavia, who introduced the modern histology as an indispensable basis
for studies of physiology: we can not study the function of an organ
first if we do not know the structural basis, since, as will be recognized also by other
in subsequent years, the structure is the expression of plastic function. Oehl
founded a real school, and grew up in this school, among others, Giulio Bizzozero, Camillo Golgi and
Enrico Sertoli.

Archive Golgi

Section in the History of Medicine of the University Museum for History, however
a real store in the strict sense exists, and the Archives Golgi.
This is a collection of printed materials of various origins, which was picked up by Emilio Veratti,
general pathologist direct student of Camillo Golgi. Archive Golgi, reflecting
wealth of material and its tremendous value both from a scientific documentary
that under the historical in the strict sense, I consider significant indicate:
1) Personal documents - Career
2) family papers
3) Decorations, invitations and other tasks
4) Nobel Prize for Medicine - Relationships Subsequent to the Nobel Institute

5) honors and celebrations
6) Manuscripts of scientific papers
7) Letters
1 - Letters of Italians ranked second last initial and arranged in order of date

2 - Letters of foreign classified and arranged as above
3 - Letters are grouped according to the origin
8) Pad for lessons
9) Original drawings - photomicrographs - Drawings reproduced
10) Minute of speeches
11) match for the lab with the academic authorities

27) Disputes
28) Writings of various scientific - Minute
29) Offices and other activities
30) After the death

Section of the History of Physics

The large number of instruments and apparatus of the Physics Section of the Historical Museum are
been identified, photographed and cataloged for the most recent version in the
the "Museum Interactive Multimedia," which is currently available on the Web at:
http://ppp.unipv.it/museo.
a number of instruments were also carried out simulations of operation,
many of them interactive, to illustrate an important principle of physics, or even
to show in detail the functioning of internal mechanisms can not be seen by visitors.
In this way the instruments are not only cataloged and available in the electronic
statically, but also "live" operating and some of them you can
repeat the experiments for which they were designed.
