Alois Alzheimer and Coworkers
Alois Alzheimer and coworkers at the psychiatric clinic of the University of Munich, 1904-05. Alzheimer was head of the neuroanatomic laboratory there. Here he is seated in the front row at left. In 1906, German psychiatrist and neuropathologist Alois Alzheimer (1864-1915) made a complete clinical and pathological description of presenile dementia, which came to be known as Alzheimer's disease, a progressive condition in which nerve cells in the brain degenerate.
