Johan Andreas (Anders) Murray (27 January 1740 - 22 May 1791) was a Swedish physician of German descent and botanist who published a major work on plant-derived medicines. ==Biography== Johan Anders Murray was born in Stockholm on 27 January 1740, son of the Prussian-born preacher and theologian Andreas Murray (1695 - 1771). His brothers were the professors Johann Philipp Murray (1726-1776) and Adolph Murray (1751-1803), and the Bishop Gustaf Murray (1747-1825). Murray studied from 1756-1759 in Uppsala, where he was taught by Carl Linnaeus. In 1760 he went to Göttingen, where he became a Doctor of Medicine in 1763. In 1769 he was appointed professor and director of the botanical garden. He led investigations into the properties of medicinal plants, at that time the main interest of botanists, and into the ways in which plant-derived medicines could be prepared and administered. Murray died in Göttingen on 22 May 1791. 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「Johan Andreas Murray」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
