Personal and family records

This series contains personal and family records of various kinds. Examples include correspondence, school and university study notes, official and unofficial documents, financial records, and photographs.

History of medicine research

This series consists of notes and collected documents related to Dr. Segall's History of medicine research. This material includes records related to his various history research projects including his N.S. Korotkov book (1980), "Pioneers of Cardiology," material concerning the Osler Library of the History of Medicine, and correspondence with other medical historians.

Medical research records

This series consists of Dr. Segall's medical research records, lecture notes, presentations, publications, and related material. While wide-ranging, the subject matter of these various kinds of materials often intersects. For example, his research records often influenced his publications and were reflected through his lectures. This interconnectivity may explain why such different forms of records were stored together. However, there are also many examples of files and boxes within the series where there are no obvious interconnections between different records.

Medical apparatuses

This series consists primarily of various medical apparatuses, 3 voice recording machines, 4 electrocardiogram recording machines, magnetic recordings, audiograph recordings, and glass slides.

Miscellaneous patient records
