The paper chronicles the life and times of Professor Alexander Brown, the Foundation Professor and Head of the Department of Medicine at the University of Ibadan. The official opening of the University College Ibadan, Nigeria on 20 November 1957 as well as the graduation of the first set of clinical students in 1960 were glorious moments for Alexander Brown who laboured for 12years to witness these. He was also instrumental to the creation of the Department of Paediatrics (1962), Department of Radiology (1963) and the Medical Illustration unit of the hospital. Paediatrics and Radiology were initially units in the Department of Medicine. He played significant role in the development of postgraduate programmes in Cardiology, neuropsychiatry and nephrology units of the hospital and substantial role in the development of nursing education in the hospital. He was the brain behind the famous Ibarapa Community Health Project.
该论文记录了亚历山大·布朗教授的生平及所处时代，他是伊巴丹大学医学系的首任教授兼系主任。1957年11月20日尼日利亚伊巴丹大学学院的正式开幕以及1960年第一批临床学生的毕业，对于为之辛勤工作了12年才见证这些时刻的亚历山大·布朗来说，都是光辉的时刻。他还对儿科学系（1962年）、放射学系（1963年）以及医院医学插图部门的创建起到了推动作用。儿科学和放射学最初是医学系的科室。他在医院心脏病学、神经精神病学和肾脏病学研究生项目的发展中发挥了重要作用，在医院护理教育的发展中也发挥了重要作用。他是著名的伊巴拉帕社区健康项目的幕后策划者。
