	Johannes Andreas Grib Fibiger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Johannes Andreas Grib Fibiger (April 23, 1867 – January 30, 1928) was a Danish scientist who won the 1926 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
		Fibiger had claimed to find an organism he called Spiroptera carcinoma that caused cancer in mice and rats.
		Later, it was shown that this specific organism was not the primary cause of the tumors.

	Johannes Andreas Grib Fibiger (www.whonamedit.com)
		The Danish pathologist Johannes Andreas Grib Fibiger in 1927 received the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for 1926 “for his discovery of the Spiroptera carcinoma.” Fibiger had achieved the first controlled induction of cancer in laboratory animals, a development of profound importance to cancer research.
		Fibiger was born on Jutland, the son of a physician, and went to Copenhagen where he completed his medical studies and obtained his doctorate in 1890.
		Fibiger’s work immediately led the Japanese pathologist Yamagiwa Katusaburo to produce cancer in laboratory animals by painting their skins with coal-tar derivates, a procedure soon adopted by Fibiger himself.

		The Bohemian Fibigers were concentrated in and around the town of Bakov n/J. (the n/J in czech means "on the river Jizera) - see map of Bohemia.
		The living Danish Fibigers are decendents of the brothers Gottfried Fibiger, Adolf Fibiger, Christian Fibiger (1667-04.05.1720) and Johan Friedrich Fibiger (o.1680-1738) and maybe a fifth brother Wolf Adam Fibiger.
		Johan Friederich Fibiger was employed in the Royal Chapel after F. Hartmanns death in 1703, but already in 1698 he had become employed as Guitar Master for three years, and was most likely also a lutenist.

		This year sees the 90th anniversary of a historic publication by Johannes Fibiger who, according to traditional ridicule, received a Nobel Prize for the clearly erroneous notion that nematodes cause malignant tumors.
		In 1926, the Nobel Prize was awarded to a man named Fibiger for ‘proving’ that cancer was caused by certain small worms.” Beck then leaves his readers to chuckle at the man's naivety.
		By revealing this sequence of events in 1913, Johannes Fibiger showed why the tumors he had discovered were so rare: they appeared only when rats ingested the parasite as larvae—and even then not with predictable certainty.

	Spiroptera carcinoma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Spiroptera carcinoma was the previous name of a nematode which was the basis of the research that won Johannes Fibiger the 1926 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
		His research indicated that nematode infection led reliably to gastric tumors in rats, and this finding was one of the first demonstrations that an infection could be a carcinogen.
		His work was later reappraised, and current consensus is that while the worms stimulated previously damaged cells to form tumors, but the worms themselves were not carcinogenic to healthy cells.

		In 1913, he proposed that cockroaches become infested by eating mice excreta containing parasitic eggs, and that mice ire re-infected by eating the larvae-Iaden cockroaches; irritation or chemicals from the nematodes caused cancers.
		Because of the' 'error" of honouring fibiger, the Nobel Foundation avoided recognising subsequent cancer research for 40 Years.

		Although Roux et al did use contemporary controls, the patients who received serum were treated at one hospital while all the controls were from a different hospital.
		Fibiger pointed out that Roux introduced serum treatment into his hospital at the same time as improvements in isolation routines and hygiene, which meant that "the evidential weight of the experiments was lost."
		For many years, the process of alternately allocating patients to intervention or control groups was the hallmark of the controlled clinical trial.

	Not Another Breakthrough?
		That was the name of the parasitic worm in rats that won Johannes Fibiger of Denmark the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology in 1926.
		Charles Oberling refers to his experiments as "among the most brilliant in all the domain of cancer research." Fibiger found one cage of rats with stomach cancer, and found worms inside the tumors, He painstakingly followed one clue after another, and was eventually able to reproduce the condition in rats using these worms.
		Unfortunately, the phenomenon that he reported was not a consistent one, and other people were subsequently unable to obtain the same kinds of results that Fibiger did.

		Johannes Fibiger of Denmark, who discovered how to use parasites to cause cancer in rats two years before Yamagiwa’s achievement, received the prize, probably because nominations were often greatly influenced by acquaintanceship, geography, and the marginalization that distance from other centers imposed on the Japanese.
