From small beginnings
Although the idea of a History of Dentistry Unit was first mooted by Dr Henry Noble (pictured below) in a paper in December 1984, it was not until January 1996 that the Group was formed following informal discussions initiated by Professor McGowan.
An inaugural meeting of interested parties was held at the Post Graduate Dental Centre, Glasgow Dental Hospital and School on 10 January 1996.
Present were Prof. David McGowan, Sir David Mason, Drs Henry Noble, Rufus Ross, R. McKechnie and Bill Smith. It was agreed that Dr Noble be appointed Chairman and Dr Ross Secretary.
Dr Henry Noble died on 10th October 2004. Dr Rufus Ross was elected Chairman and Dr S. Taylor Secretary at a meeting of the group on 1st November 2004.
Prof. David McGowan has since also held the chair, Prof Moos has been Secretary and Marie Watt has been Treasurer
The current Executive:
Chairman: Mike Gow
Secretary: Robert Kinloch
Treasurer: Kieran Fallon
Magazine Editor: Josephine Cummins
Executive Members: Audrey Noble, Marie Watt, David McGowan, Patrick Lilly, Carol Parry, and David Still
