The present paper is the fifth instalment of the Report on the Molteno Institute collection, of which Parts I–III (Ascaeidae, Heterakidae, Oxyuridae, Camallanidae, etc.) and Part IV (Trichostrongylidae and Strongylidae) were published in this Journal by Dr H. A. Baylis (1923) and myself (1926). This collection was sent to Cambridge by Dr E. Hindle and consisted chiefly of unnamed material which had accumulated in the Parasitological Laboratory of the Egyptian Government School of Medicine in Cairo. Since commencing the work on the Filarioidea contained in this material, a further series of worms belonging to this order was placed at my disposal by the Cairo Medical School and the results of my study of this collection have been incorporated with those of the Molteno Institute specimens.

When Prof. E. Hindle took over the direction of the Biological Laboratory of the Egyptian Government School of Medicine, Cairo, he found there a large collection of parasitic worms, most of which had been accumulated by Prof. Looss while in charge of the Laboratory for a number of years prior to the Great War. As a large proportion of this material was unnamed, and as the named portion of it contained many specimens possibly of considerable value as original types or co-types, which had been in a neglected condition for some time, it was thought advisable to send duplicates of the collection to England, in order that part of it might be kept there in safer custody. It was also felt to be desirable that arrangements should be made for the examination and determination of the contents of the unnamed part of the collection.

The present paper is the first of a series describing a collection of cestodes from the Biological Laboratory of the Egyptian Government School of Medicine, Cairo, the nematodes having previously been described in this Journal by Baylis (1923 a, 1923 b, 1923 c) and Boulenger (1926). The identification of this portion of the collection has presented great difficulties, the specimens, from long immersion in alcohol mixed with fragments of cork, having become so pigmented as to be virtually black and almost unstainable: but for a formula (soak for 3 to 5 days in pure beechwood creosote, then transfer for the same time to 5 per cent. hydrochloric acid in 70 per cent, alcohol) supplied by Dr H. A. Baylis—to whom the author tenders his most sincere thanks—the elucidation of their anatomy would have been impossible.

Disputes, divisions and even conflicts, so frequent in Serbia, have not bypassed physicians-members of the Serbian Medical Society; ones of the most important occurred at the crossroad of the 19th and 20th centuries related to foundation of the School of Medicine in Belgrade. The most prominent and persistent advocate of foundation of the School of Medicine was Dr. Milan Jovanovic Batut. In 1899, he presented the paper ?The Medical School of the Serbian University?. Batut`s effort was worth serious attention but did not produce fruit. On the contrary, Dr. Mihailo Petrovic criticized Batut by opening the discussion ?Is the Medical School in Serbia the most acute sanitary necessity or not?? in the Serbian Archives, in 1900. However, such an attitude led to intervention of Dr. Djoka Nikolic, who defended Batut`s views. He published his article in Janko Veselinovic`s magazine ?The Star?. Since then up to 1904, all discussions about Medical School had stopped. It was not even mentioned during the First Congress of Serbian Physicians and Scientists. Nevertheless, at the very end of the gathering, a professor from Prague, Dr. Jaromil Hvala claimed that ?the First Serbian Congress had prepared the material for the future Medical School?, thus sending a message to the attendants of what importance for Serbia its foundation would have been. But the President of both the Congress and the Serbian Medical Society, as well as the editor of the Serbian Archives, Dr. Jovan Danic announced that ?the First Congress of Serbian Physicians and Scientists had finished its work?. It was evident that Danic belonged to those medical circles which jealously guarded special privileges of doctors and other eminent persons who had very serious doctrinal disagreements on the foundation of the Medical School. All that seemed to have grown into clash, which finally resulted in the fact that Serbia got Higher Medical School within the University of Belgrade with a great delay, only after the First World War.

<p>The aim of the study was to present the concept on which the School of Medicine at the Catholic University of Croatia (CUC) will be established. The new School will alleviate the shortage of physicians in Croatia and introduce an innovative form of medical education focused on principles of patient-centered care and social accountability. At the same time, the students will acquire all relevant competencies and levels of knowledge, skills and attitudes that are required by current evidence in medical education, European standards and guidelines for quality assurance at higher education institutions. The four pillars of the CUC Medical School are: 1) distributed medical education that involves health institutions outside major medical centers, 2) the concept of transformative learning, 3) teaching and practicing evidence-based medicine, and 4) implementation of quality management principles supported by information technology solutions for effective management of learning, research and practice. The overall aim of the CUC School of Medicine is to educate and train physicians capable of using best available medical evidence to deliver economically sustainable healthcare that can improve equity and health outcomes in the communities they serve, particularly those that are currently underserved.</p><p><strong>Conclusion. </strong>The proposed programme is introducing an original system of modern medical education that insists on developing humanistic aspects of medicine, patient-centred care and social accountability, while maintaining all competencies and knowledge levels that a physician should have according to the current understanding of medical education.</p>
