Sir Charles Bell (1774-1842), Scottish surgeon anatomist, and First Professor of Anatomy and Surgery at the Royal College of Surgeons, London has long been considered to be the first to describe idiopathic facial paralysis in the early 19 th century. Bell's most important works are in the fields of research on the brain and the nerves. His book, "An Idea of a New Anatomy of the Brain" (1811), has been called the "Magna Carta of Neurology." Sir Charles Bell was one of the chief practicing surgeons at the Middlesex Hospital in London. In 1814, he accepted a position as a surgeon at the Middlesex Hospital and was instrumental in the founding of the Middlesex Hospital and Medical School in London in 1828. Charles Bell joined the British army as a surgeon and had a unique opportunity to study facial gunshot injuries during the Napoleonic wars, most notably in the Battle of Waterloo. It was the battlefield experiences along with animal experiments done in his laboratory that led to his conclusion that the seventh cranial nerve controlled facial expression. In 1821, Sir Charles Bell described the anatomy of the facial nerve and its association with the unilateral facial palsy that bears his name.

Summary:
Sir Geoffrey Marshall was a remarkable, hard-working man who helped in the development of anaesthesia and respiratory medicine. Both were in someway helped by his military experiences in World War I, first when working on an ambulance barge and then in the Casualty Clearing Stations researching the increasing problem of surgical shock. Among a
multitude of high-ranking medical posts he also acted as Physician to King George VI and Sir Winston Churchill when they developed respiratory conditions.

The philatelic medium is an extensive repository of the portraits of doctors of many nations. Using an electronic matching system to identify links between the lists of alumni and faculties register of Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore and that of three stamp catalogues, 14 notable persons have been identified in the philatelic record. The Johns Hopkins Hospital was established in Baltimore in 1889 and instituted the revolutionary concept of combining patient care with research and teaching. Its founder Johns Hopkins (1795-1873) and 13 among alumni and faculties have been portrayed on postage stamps and first day covers of USA, Canada, Antigua, Barbuda, Palau, Maldives, Canada and Sweden. Five of them - du Vigneaud (1901-78), Smith (b. 1931), Nathans (1928-99), Hubel (b. 1926) and Wiesel (b. 1924) - were awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology. By means of the philatelic medium, portraits of Hopkins scientists and doctors, including Sir William Osler (1849-1919) and Dr Virgina Apgar (1909-74), are distributed in their many tens of thousands on envelopes sent not only to recipients in the USA but to the wider world.
