Robert Koch and Richard Pfeiffer, German Bacteriologists,1897

Professors Koch and Pfeiffer working in a laboratory, investigating the plague in Bombay.  Heinrich Hermann Robert Koch (December 11, 1843 - May 27, 1910) was a German physician and microbiologist. As the founder of modern bacteriology, he identified the specific causative agents of tuberculosis, cholera, and anthrax and gave experimental support for the concept of infectious disease, which included experiments on humans and animals. Koch created and improved laboratory technologies and techniques in the field of microbiology, and made key discoveries in public health. His research led to the creation of Koch's postulates, a series of four generalized principles linking specific microorganisms to specific diseases that remain today the gold standard in medical microbiology. For his research on tuberculosis, Koch received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1905. In 1910, Koch suffered a heart attack and never made a complete recovery. Three days after giving a lecture on his tuberculosis research at the Prussian Academy of Sciences, Koch died in Baden-Baden at the age of 66. Following his death, the Institute named its establishment after him in his honor. Richard Friedrich Johannes Pfeiffer (March 27, 1858 - September 15, 1945) was a German physician and bacteriologist. Photograph attributed to Captain C. Moss, 1897.

Descripción:
Traducción automática: Los profesores Koch y Pfeiffer trabajando en un laboratorio, investigando la peste en Bombay. Heinrich Hermann Robert Koch (11 de diciembre de 1843 - 27 de mayo de 1910) fue un médico y microbiólogo alemán. Como fundador de la bacteriología moderna, identificó los agentes causales específicos de la tuberculosis, el cólera y el ántrax y brindó apoyo experimental al concepto de enfermedad infecciosa, que incluía experimentos con humanos y animales. Koch creó y mejoró tecnologías y técnicas de laboratorio en el campo de la microbiología, e hizo descubrimientos clave en salud pública. Su investigación condujo a la creación de los postulados de Koch, una serie de cuatro principios generalizados que vinculan microorganismos específicos con enfermedades específicas que siguen siendo hoy el estándar de oro en microbiología médica. Por su investigación sobre la tuberculosis, Koch recibió el Premio Nobel de Fisiología o Medicina en 1905. En 1910, Koch sufrió un ataque cardíaco y nunca se recuperó por completo. Tres días después de dar una conferencia sobre su investigación sobre la tuberculosis en la Academia Prusiana de Ciencias, Koch murió en Baden-Baden a la edad de 66 años. Tras su muerte, el Instituto bautizó su establecimiento con su nombre en su honor. Richard Friedrich Johannes Pfeiffer (27 de marzo de 1858 - 15 de septiembre de 1945) fue un médico y bacteriólogo alemán. Fotografía atribuida al capitán C. Moss, 1897
