Celebrating 100 Years of Excellence at the University of Rochester Medical Center

In 1925, a bold idea took root in Rochester: create an academic medical center where research, education, and patient care work together to improve lives. That idea gave rise to three institutions that would shape healthcare for a century—the School of Medicine and Dentistry, the School of Nursing, and Strong Memorial Hospital.

100 years later, we celebrate how they've shaped modern medicine, trained generations of leaders, and expanded care of the highest quality across our region and beyond.
