IN THE PRESENT THESIS AN EFFORT WAS MADE TO DESCRIBE BRIEFLY THE DEVELOPMENT OF MEDICINE AND SCIENTIFIC OR OTHER WORKS OF THE DOCTORS IN IONIAN ISLANDS FROMTHE BEGINNING OF THE 16TH CENTURY TO THE FIRST HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY. ALTHOUGH DURING THIS PERIOD OF TIME THE IONIAN ISLANDS WERE UNDER THE VENETIAN ANDBRITISH DOMINATIONS, AN OUTSTANDING CULTURAL AND INTELLECTUAL WORK WAS PRODUCED SPECIALLY IN THE FIELDS OF HEALTH AND MEDICINE. 1. WE STUDY THE PROGRESS OF MEDICINE IN THE IONIAN ISLANDS, FROM THE 16TH TO THE 19TH CENTURIES, SUPPORTING THE VIEW THAT THE STANDARD OF MEDICAL SCIENCE IN THE ISLANDS WAS SIMILAR TO THAT OF THE BETTER EUROPEAN MEDICAL CENTRES. 2. A CHAPTER OF THIS THESIS ISDEDICATED TO THE UNDERGRADUATE AND POSTGRADUATE EDUCATION OF MEDICAL DOCTORS OF THE IONIAN ISLANDS. 3. REFERENCE IS MADE TO THE MORE SIGNIFICANT EPIDEMICS WHICH OCCURED ON THE IONIAN ISLANDS. IN COMPARISON WITH THOSE OF CONTINENTAL PARTS OF GREECE, THE AUTHOR EMPHASISES THE LOW INTENSITY AND THE LIMITED IN NUMBER EPIDEMIC CASUALTIES, ATTRIBUTING THIS TO THE PREVAILING THEN HEALTH SYSTEM. 4. THE HEALTH SYSTEM OF THE IONIAN ISLANDS, FROM THE APPPLICATION OF THE FIRST HEALTH REGULATIONS TO ITS FULL DEVELOPMENT, IS PRESENTED AND ANALYSED SUPPORTING THAT IT PROVED EFFECTIVE IN KEEPING ACCEPTABLE STANDARDS OF HYGIENE. FURTHERMORE, WE STATE THE MEASURES TAKEN FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE IONIAN ISLANDS AND THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE MEDICAL SCIENTISTS IN THE APPLICATION OF THE HEALTH REGULATIONS. 5.
