    Area of Science:

    • Medical History
    • History of Science
    • Sociology of Science

    Context:

    • 19th-century academic medicine presented significant barriers for Jewish physicians.
    • Jewish doctors often faced limitations in securing traditional academic positions.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the role of Jewish physicians in the development of specialized medical fields.
    • To examine the emergence of physical medicine as a case study for this phenomenon.

    Summary:

    • Quantitative analysis of physical medicine in Vienna (1890-1914) reveals its private sector establishment.
    • 75% of University of Vienna "Dozenten" in physical medicine were Jewish doctors.
    • This affinity stemmed from the scientific appeal of physical medicine and opportunities for independent practice.
