title: [The first scientific meeting in Subotica--August 27-31 1899].
abstract: The author brings out a brief survey of the development of Subotica as a city, and the development and achievements in it on a social and cultural scale during the 18th and 19th century. He states, that in the last decades of the past century, Subotica was a very strong economic and cultural center of this part of Vojvodina. Such a surrounding was offered, and afterwards it was decided upon, to organize an elite, professional and scientific manifestation--The Annual Meeting of Physicians and Naturalists of that--time Hungary. Here is an account of this First Scientific Meeting in Subotica, which was just the 30th Jubilee Meeting of the Physicians and Naturalists of Hungary. About 100 scientists took part in the work of this meeting, and 74 reports were presented. The holding of such a meeting in Subotica is, no doubt, an important moment in the cultural life of Subotica, and an especially important date in the development of the health service and science within it.
