History
It was inaugurated on October 18, 1993, inside the building of the Regional Center for Health Information and Documentation CRIDS of the Faculty of Medicine of the UANL, with the name of Historical Room. Initially it was part of what is now the Archive Historical Documentary and Photographic of the Faculty of Medicine, which consisted of a section of books, photographs and old medical instruments.
In 2002, Dr. Ángel Óscar Ulloa Gregori (1919-2015), plastic surgeon, graduate and professor at the faculty, donated his personal collection of a thousand pieces of old medical-surgical instruments. From that date on, the Historical Room was reopened under the name of the “Dr. Ángel Óscar Ulloa Gregori ”, in recognition of his professional career and his legacy.
Activities
The Museum Room installs each year thematic exhibitions coordinated in conjunction with professors and students of the Faculty and provides guided tours for students and the general public. The collections can be consulted by researchers in the area. The Museum Room annually organizes conferences and seminars with regional and national medical-historical themes.
