In 1854, an ordinary water pump led physician John Snow to discover the source of a deadly cholera outbreak in London. The tools of the public health profession are not always so simple, but in their ability to help researchers unlock the mysteries of human health and disease, they’re every bit as marvelous. In hopes of reawakening our collective sense of wonder, we’ve assembled nine instruments of the trade currently in use at the School of Public Health. See how many you can identify. (We're betting even Dr. Snow would recognize one or two. -Editor) Take the Quiz! Send correspondence about this or any Findings article to the editor at sph.findings@umich.edu.
