  • Wikipedia, June 26, 2016:(Julius Albert Fraenkel (3 June 1864 - 22 December 1938) was a German physician who helped establish Streptococcus pneumoniae as a cause of bacterial pneumonia. Born in 1864 in Mußbach an der Weinstraße, Albert was the son of a Jewish merchant. He studied medicine in Munich and Strasbourg. Fraenkel's later life was marred by Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany. He was stripped of his position as professor at Heidelberg in 1933 and his license to practice medicine was revoked in 1938, three months before his death.)
