000003240 520__ $$aNelson R. Niles has been a faculty member at OHSU for over forty years. In this interview, he talks of his medical training, his military service, and his tenure at the university. Dr. Niles got specialized Army training while a medical student at Cornell University Medical College. He took his specialty in pathology and came to UOMS in 1951 as resident. He speaks of colleagues, the department and its autopsy work, and town and gown tensions. Dr. Niles touches briefly on his work as a member of the Faculty Senate before commenting on the changes he has seen. He mentions changes in curriculum, laments the loss of laboratory time for students, and about research. He notes that the lack of an organized research program in no way discouraged individual research. Finally, he speaks of the rise of technology in medical education, and the challenges facing women and minorities in medicine.

They are the personal recollections and opinions of the individuals involved and, therefore, may contain offensive language, ideas or negative stereotypes reflecting the culture or language of a person, period or place. Oral histories should not serve as the sole source of information about an institution or particular historical events. These narratives should in no way be interpreted as the official history of Oregon Health & Science University, nor do they necessarily represent the views of the institution.
