The Amoss Papers represent the scant survivals of the papers of Harold L. Amoss, a pathologist and medical researcher long associated with the Rockefeller Institute. The collection includes professional correspondence with colleagues, both in-coming and out-going, dating primarily from the period 1918-1922. While there is interesting material pertaining to Amoss' research on polio, meningitis, and on vaccines, nothing is very extensive. Documentation of Amoss' service in the Army Medical Corps during the First World War is somewhat better, though still slight.
