Hugo Pernice

Hugo Karl Anton Pernice (born November 9, 1829 in Halle (Saale) ; † December 31, 1901 in Greifswald ) was a German professor for obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Greifswald.

Life

As the son of the legal scholar Ludwig Pernice , Pernice attended the Latina of the Francke Foundations . After graduating from high school, he studied medicine at the Georg-August University in Göttingen . In 1848, at the time of the German Revolution of 1848/1849, he initially became a member of the Corps Hannovera Göttingen , but joined the fraternity- oriented Progress connection Teutonia as a co-founder with other members of the Hannovera under the revolutionary Wilhelm Pieper on November 25 of the same year . Pernice moved to the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn , the Friedrichs-Universität Halle and the Prague Karls-Universität . On April 4, 1852, he was promoted to Dr. med. PhD. From February 1853 to April 1856 he was assistant to Anton Friedrich Hohl at the obstetric clinic at the University of Halle. There he qualified as a professor for obstetrics on April 3, 1855 . On June 29, 1858 he was appointed to the chair at the Royal University of Greifswald .

“In accordance with his training in Halle unter Hohl, Pernice was an excellent practical obstetrician. He saw his task as a teacher in raising capable obstetricians. In this endeavor he succeeded in transferring the clinic from very imperfect, indeed too miserable rooms into a house completed in 1875, which, according to the demands of the time, could be described as a great creation. ... With the obstetric clinic he connected a midwifery training institute in which he trained a number of midwifery students for New West Pomerania, albeit a limited number. Pernice turned his active interest to gynecology only late. For a long time he limited himself to applying the previously usual methods of therapy in the treatment of women's ailments. It must be recognized that he has achieved quite a lot in practice in this area. "

- August Martin

For more than 41 years he was director of the obstetric and gynecological clinic. He was also the first chairman of the Greifswald Medical Association, founded in 1863. For the academic year 1869/70 he was elected rector of the university. In the summer semester of 1899 he asked for release from his official obligations. After his wife died in autumn 1901, he succumbed to his illness at the age of 72. Among his six children was the son Erich Pernice , a classical archaeologist .
