Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Context: The University of Edinburgh (abbreviated as Edin. in post-nominals), founded in 1582, is the sixth oldest university in the English-speaking world and one of Scotland's ancient universities. The university is deeply embedded in the fabric of the city of Edinburgh, with many of the buildings in the historic Old Town belonging to the university., Isabel Jane Thorne ( 1834 - 1910 ) was an early campaigner for medical education for women . Born Isabel Jane Pryer on the 22nd of September 1834 in London , she married Joseph Thorne , a tea merchant , and went to live in Shanghai . They are believed to have had five children , including : Isobel ( born 1860 ; became an art student ) , May ( born Mary in 1861 , who became a surgeon after supporting her mother in her campaigns ) ; and Dr. Atwood Thorne , Surgeon to the London Throat Hospital . Thorne became convinced of the need for women to have female doctors for themselves and their children , especially women living in China and India . When the family returned to England in the late 1860s she started a midwifery training at the Female Medical College in London . Soon she responded to Sophia Jex - Blake 's advertisement calling for women to join her in an attempt to qualify as doctors at Edinburgh University and so Thorne became one of the Edinburgh Seven . During this time , she won first prize in an anatomy examination . After their attempt to graduate in medicine was blocked , Thorne was one of the women who `` re-grouped '' at the London School of Medicine for Women . Her diplomatic temperament meant she was a more acceptable honorary secretary than Jex - Blake whose nomination had threatened to stir up controversy . Thorne gave up her own ambition to be a doctor in order to commit herself to helping the school run smoothly and become more solidly established . She kept records and wrote an account of these years which was published in 1905 as Sketch of the Foundation and Development of the London School of Medicine for Women . In 1908 her daughter , the surgeon Mary Thorne who had graduated from the LSMW in 1895 , succeeded her as honorary secretary ., The Edinburgh Seven were the first group of matriculated undergraduate female students at any British university. They began studying medicine at the University of Edinburgh in 1869 and although they were ultimately prevented from graduating and qualifying as doctors, the campaign they fought gained national attention and won them many supporters, including Charles Darwin. Their campaign put the rights of women to a university education on the national political agenda, which eventually resulted in legislation to ensure that women could study at university in 1877.
The group is also referred to as Septem contra Edinam ("Seven against Edinburgh" - a term modeled on the Seven Against Thebes of Greek mythology). Although over the four-year campaign some of the original seven left and others joined, the Edinburgh Seven are considered to be as follows:, Subject: isabel thorne, Relation: educated_at, Options: (A) medicine (B) university of edinburgh
