EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Sir Ronald Ross, the renowned British physician and Nobel laureate, in the prime of his career. Born in Almora, India, in 1857, Ross is best known for his groundbreaking discovery of the role of the Anopheles mosquito in the transmission of malaria. In 1897, he published his findings in the journal "The Lancet," revolutionizing the medical world and saving countless lives. The image, taken in 1932, shows Ross in a thoughtful pose, his piercing eyes gazing off into the distance as he twirls a moustache that has become synonymous with his iconic image. The inscription below the photograph reads, "Sir Ronald Ross, K.C.B., F.R.S., 1857-1932," paying homage to the esteemed scientist and his significant contributions to the field of medicine. Ross's discovery of the malaria parasite's life cycle in the mosquito marked a turning point in the history of medicine, paving the way for the development of effective malaria treatments and prevention methods. His work earned him the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1902, a testament to his unwavering dedication and brilliance. This historical photograph is a poignant reminder of the remarkable achievements of Sir Ronald Ross and the profound impact his discoveries have had on the world. It is a must-have for any collection dedicated to the history of medicine or the life and work of Sir Ronald Ross.
