Visitors to McGill University's newest museum can expect brains and bones — and to confront death head on, says pathologist Rick Fraser. The Maude Abbott Medical Museum is set to open to the public on the Montreal campus Sept. 24. Fraser is a pathologist at the McGill University Health Centre, who helped bring the museum to life. The story is that it began probably in the 1820s, just at the time the McGill University was being formed. The original purpose of a museum like this is a teaching museum and so why open it to the general public?
