Why is edward Jenner's work important to the history of medicine?
I am not sure who in their right mind would entirely believe something so absurd when history shows that it was Edward Jenner who did the research and work. Though moving on past the bad spelling and poor grammer in that answer i believe that his work was important because it spear-headed vaccination and research of vaccinations in England.Before there was no actual proof and only rumours that cowpox could make humans immune to smallpox, though Edward Jenner proved it with his research and even several tests on different subjects (Details can be found in wikipedia i believe). This made other scientists and doctors in effect start their own research for vaccinations for other deadly diseases off the base of Jenner's own, he became the first "immuniser" using knowledge that recovering from a mild form of disease gives human beings protection.So overall, it would be said that his work was so important because it made us look differently at how we could cure and strengthen our bodies against these illnesses. Even with old ideas we could use them to find cures for the diseases of today, such as AIDS for instance which is a common problem.I hope this helped, as i too was looking into Edward Jenner and his work.~Barrbossa_it is to get you understand the germs of germology to kill you by killing edward Jenner or so ma great granauntmother said.

What caused Edward Jenner death?
He died from a stroke at the age of 73. He had suffered a few minor strokes before the fatal one. He died at 2.00am on 26th January 1823, having been found unconscious at breakfast time the previous day, and never recovering consciousness. The night before, he had been called out to the local coroner, who had also suffered a stroke. He declared that the coroner would not survive more than 24 hours. Ironically, Dr Jenner died a few hours before his last patient.
How Edward Jenner found vaccination?
Observation and deductive reasoning. Smallpox was a scourge during Jenner's time, but he noticed that milkmaids contracted a very mild illness similar to smallpox called "cowpox", from which they recovered easily. He postulated that a tiny bit of the cowpox serum could be injected into a well person, and the mild cowpox might protect them from the deadly smallpox. It worked.
Why is Edward Jenner important in history?
Edward Jenner was an English physician who is credited with successfully introducing the practice of vaccinating against smallpox. Jenner, apprenticed to a surgeon as a boy, studied medicine briefly in London before returning to his rural hometown to open his own medical practice (1792). Following up on local lore that said dairymaids who had contracted cowpox were immune to smallpox, Jenner decided to see if he could adapt the Turkish practice of inoculation to prevent the spread and devastation of smallpox. In May of 1796 he took a gamble and inoculated James Phipps, the 8 year-old son of a local farmer. Phipps was exposed to fluid from the pustules of a woman with cowpox. The boy contracted cowpox, and several weeks later Jenner exposed him to smallpox. Fortunately, the boy didn't contract smallpox and Jenner's theory was proved correct. After other successful trials, Jenner published his findings in Inquiry into the Cause and Effects of the Variolae Vaccinae in 1798. Jenner went on to become famous as the world embraced "vaccination," a term he coined (because vacca is Latin for cow, and vaccinia was the term for cowpox). Jenner was also an educated naturalist and horticulturist, an amateur geologist and zoologist (he was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society for a paper on the nesting habits of the cuckoo) and a fossil hunter who discovered the bones of a plesiosaur in 1819.

Who were the early pioneers in vaccinations?
Some well-known pioneers:Louis PasteurPasteur wrote "the germs of microscopic organisms abound in the surface of all objects, in the air and in water." He figured out these microorganisms could be killed by heating liquid (55 C/130 F) for short periods of time, which is known as pasteurization, i.e., used for milk. With his work in microbiology, He showed that diseases (like rabies) could be prevented by vaccination (a term created by Pasteur!), that is, injecting an organism with weakened forms of the disease, thus opening up the field of Immunology.Edward JennerJenner observed that for some odd reason milkmaids did not get smallpox. He speculated that the pus in the blisters they got from cowpox (they were around cows all day) protected them from smallpox.In 1796, Jenner tested his theory: He inoculated a young boy with the pus from cowpox blisters (he extracted from the hand of a milkmaid who had caught cowpox from a cow) and lo and behold! There we have our first smallpox vaccination!
