 | | Virchow's classification of tumors had a histogenetic base and was not based on their behavior. | | | One of the new concepts introduced by Virchow was that of "homology". | | | Cancer as a disease complex was known by the ancient physicians; its nature is still the subject of debate today. |

| | Rudolf Ludwig Karl Virchow (www.whonamedit.com) |
| | Virchow accepted the call subject to certain conditions, one of which was the erection of a new pathological institute, which he used for the rest of his life. | | | Rejecting transcendental concerns, Virchow envisaged medical progress from three main sources: clinical observations, including the examination of the patient with the aid of physicochemical methods; animal experimentation to test specific aetiologies and study certain drug effects; and pathological anatomy, especially at the microscopic level. | | | Virchow’s rather provocative ideas generated considerable hostility among his older peers, but he passed his licensure examination in 1846 without difficulties and began teaching pathological anatomy. |

| | Rudolf Virchow, a German physician writing during the 1800s, was a key founder of social medicine. | | | Virchow also recognized the political and material circumstances that inhibited disease prevention efforts and viewed advocacy as an essential part of medical research. | | | These are materialist approaches that emphasize the social and political economic nature of health, disease and healing, and which embrace both micro and macro perspectives. |

| | Every student of microbiology, medicine, and public health learns about the triangle of host, environment, and agent; what is not clear is how the three change over time, often in response to changes in another side of the triangle. | | | Like Virchow, Lederberg recognized that microscopic changes make much larger differences, particularly when viewed in the context of global changes. | | | He died in 1902, a revered scientist with a lifetime of magnificent achievements, but also with desires to have done more to improve public health and social conditions. |

| | Re: What was already known about the cell by the time Rudolf Virchow was alive? |
| | He discovered fibrinogen, leukocytosis, leukemia, and myelin, worked out the conditions that predispose to thrombosis, explained and named pulmonary embolization, and refuted the current fad theory of disease -- the humoralism of "crases" and "dyscrasias" which prohibited surgery for localized lesions. | | | However he has contributed enormously to our knowledge of diseases. | | | But I was able to locate some interesting stuff. |

| | He applied his doctrine to the various tissues, and showed their behavior under normal and abnormal conditions of life. | | | Virchow is the creator of cellular pathology, which today is universally recognized, a pathology based strictly upon natural science which definitively extinguished Hippocratic speculative humoral pathology. | | | Diseases thus represent a reaction of the sum of the cells which form the body against harmful influences, the causes of diseases. |

| | The term was used for a few years to describe what would be comparable to our modern day septicemia. | | | His statement asserting that “phlebitis dominates all of pathology”, was the focal point of Virchow’s early research on blood chemistry and blood pathology that resulted in Virchow’s in the development of such concepts as embolism and thrombosis. | | | “Ichorremia” was a new term coined by Virchow during his early studies (1844-1856) on blood chemistry and blood pathology to describe a chemical disturbance or toxic contamination of the blood. |

| | Abstract-Between Science and Politics |
| | The physicalist revolt pitted young scientists such as Virchow, who had been convinced by developments in physics and chemistry that all life was subject to physical and chemical laws, against the prevailing Romantically-oriented school of German Naturphilosophie, which held that all nature was imbued with spiritual activity. | | | Perceiving a parallel between liberal challenges to authoritarian governments and the physicalist challenge to scientific dogmas prescribed early in the nineteenth century, Virchow spoke of confronting social and political “arbitrariness” with the “rationality” of science. | | | He saw the two revolts as common struggles against orthodoxy and authority, summarizing the events of 1848 as a fight of “criticism” against “authority,” and of natural science against “dogma.” Proclaiming himself a man whose scientific beliefs were fused with his political and social beliefs, Virchow supported the left wing of the Frankfurt National Assembly. |
