Abraham Kuhn (August 28, 1838 – September 15, 1900) was an Alsatian otolarynologist born in Bissersheim, Rhineland-Palatinate. He studied under Anton von Tröltsch (1829-1890) at the University of Würzburg, then continued his education at the ''École de Médecine'' in Strasbourg. In 1870 he published "''Traité pratique des maladies de l'oreille''", a French translation of Tröltsch's "''Lehrbuch der Ohrenheilkunde''".〔(biography ) @ Jewish Encyclopedia.〕 During the Franco-Prussian War he served with the ''Croix-Rouge'' (French Red Cross) on the battlefields of Wissembourg and Wörth. Later on he became a lecturer (from 1873) at the renamed ''Kaiser-Wilhelm-Universität'' in Strassburg, where in 1881 he was appointed associate professor of otolaryngology and director at the clinic of ear diseases. During this time period, Kuhn was only one of a handful of professors in Germany who specialized in the field of otology. Much of his scientific research dealt with comparative anatomy of the ear, in particular the inner ear's labyrinth. He also made significant contributions involving diagnosis and treatment of ear tumors. == Selected writings == * ''Traité pratique des maladies de l'oreille'' (Paris 1870), translation with D.M.Levi of Anton Friedrich von Tröltsch's ''Lehrbuch der Ohrenheilkunde''. * ''Histologie des Häutigen Labyrinthes der Knochenfische'' (Leipzig 1878). * ''Neubildungen des Ohres und Vergleichende Anatomie des Ohres'' in: Hermann Schwartze's "Handbuch für Ohrenheilkunde" (Leipzig 1893). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abraham Kuhn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
