Sir Dugald Baird (1899 – 1986) was a Scottish medical doctor. He was professor in obstetrics and gynaecology. ==Career== Baird was born in Greenock in 1899. He graduated in medicine from Glasgow University in 1922. His early experiences attending births in the Glasgow slums and in the city's Royal Maternity Hospital shaped his interest in the social and economic influences on the health of women, their babies, and across generations.〔 He was awarded Fellowship of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in 1935. He moved to Aberdeen in 1936 as Regius Professor of Midwifery at the University of Aberdeen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Academic Obstetrics and Gynaecology: History )〕 During the next three decades, his main interests were in the areas of clinical practice, service provision and health policy in reproductive health, perinatal and maternal mortality, social obstetrics, sterilisation, induced abortion, and cervical screening. With his wife Lady Matilda Deans Baird, also a physician, Sir Dugald also established the first free family planning clinic in Aberdeen. In 1951 he set up the Aberdeen Maternity and Neonatal Databank, which continues today to link all the obstetric and fertility-related events occurring to women from a defined population.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Academic groups: Immpact: Our work: History )〕 Sir Dugald formally retired in 1965. 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「Dugald Baird」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
