Getting Better: 200 Years of Medicine

To celebrate 200 years of the publication of the New England Journal of Medicine, a 45-minute documentary explores three remarkable stories of medical progress that have taken place over the course of the long history of NEJM.  In 1812, we had no understanding of infectious disease, surgery was unsanitary and performed without anesthesia, and cancer was unrecognized. Two centuries later, this film tells the story of research, clinical practice, and patient care, and of how we have continued to get better over the last 200 years. 


Le Beaumont team salutes to all the pioneers and people who participated in the grueling process of research and pioneering work. We are conducting an equally important research in early brain development which helps to reduce the occurrence of  autism & language impairment, and to better realize the potential of new born babies in IQ, EQ & LQ.
