The correct answer is true.
It is true that during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, medicine emerged as a practice based on science instead of art based on religion and superstition.
Instead of using plants and beverages, medicine started to become a professional practice at that time. Colleges started to emphasize medical studies and education. Scientific Societies were established, helping to form a serious body of researchers. Many people helped to medical science such as Joseph Priestly, Jesse Bernet, and Edward Venner.
