The opening of the Max Pam metabolic unit for clinical research in diseases of metabolism at the Michael Reese Hospital was announced today by Alfred C. Meyer, president.
The operation of this unit has been made possible through a bequest of the late Judge Hugo Pam and the cooperation of the trustees of his estate. A capital fund of $150,000 is provided for the maintenance of the unit.
The unit consists of beds for four patients and an adjoining laboratory completely equipped for the investigation of metabolic diseases along physiological and chemical lines.
