Figure 4 Women medical students, Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh, 1897–8. Women students were finally admitted to Edinburgh University in 1892, but they were taught separately from the men. This group photograph was taken in front of the main door, exactly where the male classes were photographed. Note the all-male teaching staff seated in the front row.
