Edward Jenner Helped understand micro-organisms by using them to create the first ever vaccine. He used cow-pox and made them develop into a cure to the deadly disease, small-pox. This helped other scientists understand micro-organisms a lot more.

What is the development of vaccines by edward Jenner and Louis Pasteur?

Edward Jenner developed the first successful smallpox vaccine in 1796, using material from cowpox lesions. His work laid the foundation for modern vaccination techniques. Louis Pasteur further advanced the field of vaccination by developing vaccines for diseases like rabies and anthrax in the late 19th century, demonstrating the concept of attenuating pathogens to create effective vaccines. Together, their contributions revolutionized the field of immunization and have saved countless lives.

How do Louis Pasteur and Edward Jenner help us keep well?

Edward Jenner noticed a trend that farm maids who milked cows were oftentimes immune to smallpox. After some research, he identified that cowpox (caused by a cousin of the smallpox virus) infected the maids and was the cause of their immunity. Jenner then experimented with cowpox on a child (history is unclear on whether this was his son or a neighbor). When he later exposed the child to smallpox, nothing happened. Thus Dr. Edward Jenner developed a method to immunize people from smallpox (which was later named vaccination by the French). Louis Pasteur developed the process of pasteurization, a process of heating food to a specific temperature for a certain amount of time then cooling it immediately to kill off microorganisms (and slow their growth) in the food. Both these processes help to keep us safe from pathogens.
