Johann Lorenz Bausch

Johann Lorenz Bausch, sometimes Latinised as Johannes Laurentius Bausch, was a German physician, born in Schweinfurt on 30 September 1605 and died there on 17 November 1665. He served as city physician and hospital doctor in Schweinfurt. He studied medicine at Jena, Marburg and Padua, took his doctorate at Altdorf in 1630 with a dissertation on consumption, and then settled as a practising doctor in his home town. He was a co-founder and the first president of the Leopoldina, today the German national academy of sciences, which four Schweinfurt physicians founded in 1652.
