![The SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University, located in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, has a rich history spanning over 150 years. It is the only academic medical center in Brooklyn and part of the State University of New York (SUNY) system.
### Early Beginnings
- **1856**: The institution began as a dispensary established by German physicians in downtown Brooklyn to provide care for poor immigrants. This dispensary later evolved into the Long Island College Hospital.
- **1858**: A medical school was launched, introducing the revolutionary concept of bedside teaching in hospitals rather than solely relying on classroom instruction[1][4][10].
### Growth and Evolution
- **1931**: The school was rechartered as the Long Island College of Medicine, with affiliations across Brooklyn hospitals[1][9].
- **1945**: Land was acquired in East Flatbush for a new campus.
- **1950**: The "Downstate" era officially began with the merger of the Long Island College of Medicine and SUNY. This marked its inclusion in the SUNY system as a public institution[4][9].
### Expansion and Milestones
- **1953-1954**: Construction began on the current campus, with President Dwight D. Eisenhower laying the cornerstone for the Basic Sciences Building.
- **1966**: The University Hospital at Downstate opened, alongside the establishment of the School of Graduate Studies, College of Nursing, and College of Health Related Professions.
- **1985**: It was renamed the State University of New York Health Science Center at Brooklyn to reflect its expanded scope.
- **2008**: The School of Public Health became fully accredited, making it one of only two such schools in the NYC metropolitan area[4][9][10].
### Achievements and Contributions
SUNY Downstate has achieved numerous medical milestones:
- It was home to the first federally funded dialysis unit (1964) and New York City's first academic emergency medicine department (1991)[3].
It has been a leader in training doctors from underrepresented communities](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:3epzqefaicyxkh2z3fywbmy5/bafkreicws3bdhhlqcdvuc2rxglpe7wjixnfflv3u225ttc5ro4w3f6aiyu)
