  • Die Edinburgh Medical School (auch als University of Edinburgh Medical School bekannt) ist das medizinische Institut der University of Edinburgh. Etabliert wurde es während der schottischen Aufklärung im Jahre 1726 und ist somit eines der ältesten medizinischen Institute der englischsprachigen Welt. Die Edinburgh Medical School befindet sich kontinuierlich auf Platz eins der Unirankings in Schottland. Landesweit belegt sie im Guardian Uniranking und dem Times University Guide Ranking Platz drei hinter der Universität Oxford und der Universität Cambridge. Das dazugehörige Universitätskrankenhaus Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh wird regelmäßig zum besten Krankenhaus Schottlands gewählt. Das Institut brachte mehrere Empfänger des Nobelpreises hervor, unter anderem einige Gewinner des Nobelpreises für Physiologie oder Medizin (z. B. Peter Doherty und Sir Robert Edwards) und einen Gewinner des Nobelpreises für Chemie (Sir Fraser Stoddart im Jahr 2016). Des Weiteren diente Sir Alexander Fleming, Entdecker des Antibiotikums Penicillin, ab 1951 drei Jahre lang als Rektor. Charles Darwin studierte dort ebenfalls zwei Jahre, bevor er nach England zog. Abgänger der Edinburgh Medical School gründeten auf der gesamten Welt weitere Universitäten und medizinische Institute, wie zum Beispiel fünf der sieben Ivy League Medical Schools (Yale, Pennsylvania, Harvard, Columbia und Dartmouth), die Universität Sydney, die Sydney Medical School, die University of Melbourne Medical School, die McGill University Faculty of Medicine, das Robert Larner College of Medicine, die Universität Montreal Medizinische Fakultät, die Royal Postgraduate Medical School (heutige medical school des Imperial College London), die Universität Kapstadt, Birbeck, das Middlesex Hospital und die London School of Medicine for Women (heute Teil des University College London).

  • The University of Edinburgh Medical School (also known as Edinburgh Medical School) is the medical school of the University of Edinburgh in Scotland and the United Kingdom and part of the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine. It was established in 1726, during the Scottish Enlightenment, making it the oldest medical school in the United Kingdom and is one of the oldest medical schools in the English-speaking world. It is widely regarded as one of the best medical schools in the United Kingdom and the world. The medical school in 2022 was ranked 1st in the UK by the Guardian University Guide, In 2021, it was ranked third in the UK by The Times University Guide, and the Complete University Guide. It also ranked 21st in the world by both the Times Higher Education World University Rankings and the QS World University Rankings in the same year. According to a Healthcare Survey run by Saga in 2006, the medical school's main teaching hospital, the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, was considered the best hospital in Scotland. As one of the preeminent medical schools in medical history, the medical school's early focus on academic understanding puts its graduates amongst the top candidates in postgraduate qualification exams, and renders them very competitive applicants with regard to clinical posts. Alongside the University of Oxford and Cambridge University, Edinburgh is seen as one of the three medical research powers in the United Kingdom. The medical school is associated with 13 Nobel Prize winners: 7 winners of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine and 6 winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Graduates of the medical school have founded medical schools and universities all over the world including 5 out of the 7 Ivy League medical schools (Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Pennsylvania and Dartmouth), Vermont, McGill, Sydney, Montréal, the Royal Postgraduate Medical School (now part of Imperial College London), the Cape Town, Birkbeck, Middlesex Hospital and the London School of Medicine for Women (both now part of UCL). As of 2017 the school accepts 184 medical students per year from the United Kingdom, 5 students from the European Union and an additional 14 students from elsewhere. Admission is extremely competitive, with an acceptance rate of 2.5% in the 2021-2022 admissions year. The yield rate, the percentage of people who are accepted who choose to attend, is 71% for the 2012–13 admissions year. The school requires the 3rd highest entry grades in the UK according to the Guardian University Guide 2014. Moira Whyte has been head of the school since 2016. (en)
