Heinrich Hermann Robert Koch was a German physician and microbiologist. The bacterium itself was discovered by Filippo Pacini in 1854, but Koch "advanced the theory that bacteria exist as distinct species, each producing a unique clinical syndrome, and he discredited the popular notion that bacteria with different morphologies were derived from the same species". As the discoverer of the specific causative agents of deadly infectious diseases including tuberculosis, cholera and anthrax, he is regarded as one of the main founders of modern bacteriology. As such he is popularly nicknamed the father of microbiology, and as the father of medical bacteriology. His discovery of the anthrax bacterium in 1876 is considered as the birth of modern bacteriology. Koch used his discoveries to establish that germs "could cause a specific disease"and directly provided proofs for that germ theory of diseases, therefore creating the scientific basis of public health, saving millions of lives.
