footnotes =Dr. Ernest William Goodpasture (
October 17 ,1886 –September 20 ,1960 ) was an Americanpathologist andphysician . Goodpasture advanced the scientific understanding of the pathogenesis of infectious diseases, parasitism, and a variety of rickettsial and viral infections. Together with colleagues at Vanderbilt, he invented methods for growing viruses and rickettsiae in chicken embryos and fertilized chicken eggs. This enabled the development of vaccines against chicken pox, smallpox, yellow fever typhus, Rocky mountain fever and other diseases. He also describedGoodpasture's syndrome , which bears his name, despite the fact that the case that was described by Goodpasture was presented as a case of influenza and probably did not have anti-GBM disease.Biography
