Martin Benno Schmidt (23 August 1863 – 27 November 1949) was a German pathologist born in Leipzig. He spent several years as an assistant in Strasbourg, where he worked under Friedrich Daniel von Recklinghausen (1833-1910). In 1906 he became a professor of pathology at the medical academy in Düsseldorf, and afterwards worked as a pathologist in Zurich and Marburg. In 1913 he succeeded Richard Kretz (1865-1920) as professor of pathology at the University of Würzburg, a position he maintained until his retirement in 1934. Schmidt specialized in pathological investigations of bone disorders such as rickets, osteogenesis imperfecta,〔(Google Books ) Encyclopedia of Human Genetics and Disease by Evelyn B. Kelly〕 and osteomalacia. He is remembered for his description of autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome, type II, a disease characterized by autoimmune activity against more than one endocrine gland. This condition is sometimes referred to as "Schmidt's syndrome".〔( Australas Med J >v.5(6); 2012 >PMC3395296 ) Schmidt's syndrome – Case report〕 Also, he performed important studies involving iron metabolism. With pathologist Ludwig Aschoff (1866-1942), he published a treatise on pyelonephritis called ''Die Pyelonephritis in anatomischer und bakteriologischer Beziehung''. Other noted works by Schmidt include: * ''Ueber Typhus abdominalis'', 1907 - About abdominal typhus. * ''Die anatomischen Grundlagen der Immunität und Disposition bei Infektionskrankheiten'', 1908 - The anatomical basis of immunity and disposition for infectious diseases. * ''Der einfluss Eisenarmer und eisenreicher Nahrung auf Blut und Körper'', 1928 - The influence of iron-low and iron-rich food for blood and body.〔(Google Search ) (publications)〕 == References == * (Institut für Pathologie der Universität Würzburg ) Martin Benno Schmidt, CEO of 1913-1934, biography 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「Martin Benno Schmidt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
