From Modern day “Euclids” to monumental teachers, they raise our levels in several ways.

Euclid

I first met Dr. Layas, a modern day Medical “Euclid” who seeks geometry in medicine in Delhi over six years ago. Having trained in the French school, he knows many measurements and angles which I had never heard about. He helped me get beyond just describing the fluid pockets around the shoulder joint, (fluid seen in bicipital groove and subacromial region) to more clinically relevant reporting.

The Class of 1954

The speaker put up the slide, showing the Class of 1954 and then traced the history of some of those boys. One of them, is in his seventies now, and still teaches at the

Al-Fateh University, following the AO Principle- Life is Movement, Movement is Life.

All those who look at bones and joints in Libya are in some way or the other following the intellectual legacy of this man of the “Class of 1954” Professor Murad Lenghi, a father figure of medical sciences in Libya who has taught many generations of medicos.
