It All Adds Up

Erasmus Bartholin is best known for his discovery in the 17th century of the optical phenomenon of double refraction. But the Dutch physicist, mathematician and physician, made contributions to medicine as well. Bartholin, from a famous family of physicians, studied in Holland, England, France and Italy, eventually settling in as professor of geometry and medicine at the University of Copenhagen from 1656 to his death in 1698. In 1667, he was appointed Royal Mathematician. Among the medical contributions attributed to Bartholin is the introduction of quinine to battle malaria. Bartholin was born on this date in 1625.
