Boonshoft School of Medicine (formerly known as The Wright State University School of Medicine) is the medical school at Wright State University. Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine is located in Dayton, Ohio, and serves the Miami Valley region of southwestern Ohio. Instead of operating a university-based hospital for clinical training, Wright State is affiliated with seven major teaching hospitals in the Greater Dayton area and has formal affiliation agreements with more than 25 other health care institutions in the Miami Valley.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= About Boonshoft School of Medicine )〕 Admission to Wright State University's School of Medicine is competitive among the many students who apply; in 2012, over 3,666 students applied for admission to the school, and 103 matriculated.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Facts at a Glance )〕 The Boonshoft School of Medicine is accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME). ==History== In 1972, Congress passed the Veterans Administration Medical School Assistance and Health Manpower Training Act, also known as the Teague Cranston Act, which provided financial support for establishing five new U.S. medical schools, including one at Wright State University. The VA awarded the school a $19.5 million, seven-year grant for faculty support and facilities. Other major founding donors included Mrs. Virginia Kettering, who contributed $1 million in unrestricted funds, and the Fordham Foundation, which provided $500,000 for a medical library. The school was established by the Ohio General Assembly in 1973.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Boonshoft's history )〕 The school's charter class began studies in 1976 and graduated in 1980. Since then, more than 2,820 physicians have graduated from the School of Medicine. Wright State alumni are practicing in almost every state in the nation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Boonshoft's history and information )〕 In 2005, the school changed its name to the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine in recognition of the Oscar Boonshoft family, which gave Wright State's largest philanthropic gift to the medical school. In 2009, the school became the first medical school in the United States to debut its own medical student produced radio program, dubbed Radio Rounds.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Radio Rounds gets around )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Boonshoft School of Medicine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
