Rudolf Virchow is a flawed historical figure whose reputation is marred by his rejection of the theory of bacterial disease and infection and his rejection of the theory of evolution, although his rejection of evolution is clearly understandable considering his time period. He is still studied though because he is an important figure in Medicine and a notable figure in German History.
