Elizabeth Blackwell (3 February 1821 â 31 May 1910) was a British-born physician, notable as the first woman to receive a medical degree in the United States, as well as the first woman on the UK Medical Register.
Elizabethâs graduating thesis was on the topic of typhus and in its conclusion she linked physical health with socio-moral responsibility. On 23 January 1849, the 28-year-old Elizabeth Blackwell became the first woman to achieve a medical degree in the United States. As she was granted her degree, Charles Lee, the dean of the college, stood up from his chair and made a courtly bow in her direction.
