A "Who is Who?" of names and "What is What?" of diseases. Soirée with lecture, music and discussion.

18. Ephraim Veitel Soirée. Continuation of the new series: "Jewish men and women shape Berlin - from the 18th to the 20th century".

The 19th and early 20th centuries were a high point of modern medicine. Jewish doctors played a disproportionately large part in this. This evening is a 'must' for anyone who not only wants to hear the names of the Jews involved and the diseases they researched, but also wants to understand what it was all about. The Berlin doctor Dr. Yael Adler, who is well-known from television and her bestselling books, will explain the nature and significance of these medical achievements - also with the help of illustrations.

What did Paul Ehrlich really achieve? What is the Wassermann test, what is the Warburg effect, what is the Romberg test and what is the Embden-Meyerhof pathway? Who brought gynecology together with hormone research, who invented the pregnancy test; what is the Henoch-Schönlein purpura or Lassar paste, what is the Buschke-Löwenstein tumor, Pinkus' fibroepithelioma and Niemann-Pick disease? This "Who is Who?" of Jewish names and "What is What?" of more or less well-known diseases could go on and on. An informative evening to marvel at!

Lecture: Dr. Yael Adler (Berlin)
Music: Franziska-Marie Scholz (Berlin) | flute

Following the lecture, we invite our guests to join us for a discussion over water, wine and pretzels.
