What scientist's experiments led to a theory that proposed microorganisms cause disease?

Not all diseases are caused by microbes. The theory of one microbe causing one disease was proven long ago. We know now that it is more complex that that now.

However, the proof would need thousands of cases to "cement" the cause.
