An ongoing project is to make these notebooks available over the World Wide Web. The Landacre Society was founded in 1956 by Dr. Russell Hayes and Dr. Bernard Marks in honor of Dr. Francis Leroy Landacre, Professor and first Chairperson, Department of Anatomy. Dr. Landacre's original research was in neuroanatomy concerning the origin of cranial ganglia and neural crest cells of lower vertebrates. His exceptionally high standards in both academic achievement and research are the tenets of the Society's promotion and support of medical student research activities. The academic and clinical faculty at The Ohio State University have shown a strong commitment to medical student research.
Medical students have a unique opportunity to benefit.
