When you note peoples names in the name of a disease, it is often a clue to who first described or worked with the disease.
On November 4th, 1906, during a lecture at the 37th Conference of South-West German Psychiatrists in Tubingen, the German neuropathologist and psychiatrist Alois Alzheimer(1864-1915,) described a peculiar disease of the cerebral cortex.
