life and work

Hermann Friedberg came from a Jewish family. He attended grammar school in Brieg from 1830 to 1838 , studied medicine in Berlin , Vienna , Prague , Paris and Breslau and received his doctorate in 1840 on "Congenital heart diseases in humans". He practiced in Berlin and worked from 1849 to 1852 as an assistant at the surgical university clinic in Berlin under Bernhard von Langenbeck . There he completed his habilitation in 1852 on the " histology of blood" for surgery and state medicine . He then headed a private surgical and ophthalmological clinic in Berlin . When he was appointed physicus ( district doctor ) to Breslau in 1866, he resumed his academic teaching activities and was appointed professor at the university there in 1869.

Friedberg was a productive but not an outstanding medic. He worked on the “pathology and therapy of muscle paralysis” (1858) and forensic medicine. In this area he published, among other things, "Poisoning by coal vapor" (1866) and various collections of his reports.

He is considered to be the first to describe the CLOVE syndrome .
