University of Medical Sciences
The medical-sciences section of the university was separated from the university according to the parliament low statute — which was ratified in 1985 — and became known as the Tabriz University of Medical Sciences (TUMS). Following the separation, TUMS started its own educational research and remedial activities independently. Similar to other medical universities in other parts of Iran, TUMS also merged with local provincial health and treatment organizations and since then, TUMS has been actively involved not only in academics but also in health and treatment tasks.

Famous quotes containing the words university, medical and/or sciences:
“Within the university ... you can study without waiting for any efficient or immediate result. You may search, just for the sake of searching, and try for the sake of trying. So there is a possibility of what I would call playing. Its perhaps the only place within society where play is possible to such an extent.”
—Jacques Derrida (b. 1930)
“As we speak of poetical beauty, so ought we to speak of mathematical beauty and medical beauty. But we do not do so; and that reason is that we know well what is the object of mathematics, and that it consists in proofs, and what is the object of medicine, and that it consists in healing. But we do not know in what grace consists, which is the object of poetry.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
“These modern ingenious sciences and arts do not affect me as those more venerable arts of hunting and fishing, and even of husbandry in its primitive and simple form; as ancient and honorable trades as the sun and moon and winds pursue, coeval with the faculties of man, and invented when these were invented. We do not know their John Gutenberg, or Richard Arkwright, though the poets would fain make them to have been gradually learned and taught.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
