Farber Hall (FARBER) - South Campus, Medical & Dental Sector
| | |
Farber Hall
Sidney Farber Hall is now part of the Cary-Farber-Sherman Complex. Built in the 1950's as the Medical-Dental Building, it was subsequently named for Samuel P. Capen (his name went to a building on the North Campus in the 1970's). Its construction allowed the medical and dental schools to move from their downtown locations.
Namesake
A member of the University of Buffalo Class of 1923 and an internationally recognized authority on cancer in children, Sidney Farber (1904-1973) served on the faculty of Harvard Medical School for 41 years. He was the brother of the noted philosopher and UB professor, Marvin Farber (1901-1980).
