The Medical Science History Mural is a 66-ft. long, 3-story tall mosaic in the lobby of the Woodruff Health Sciences Center Administration Building at Emory University. Installed in 1996, it is the work if Italian-born artist Sirio Tonelli, who is known for mosaic work throughout the United States and Italy. The mosaic tells the story of medical sciences from 10,000 BC to the present, including achievements such as the development of x-rays to the graduation of the first woman from a U.S. medical school.
