About the author
Born in Berlin in 1877 and dying in Marburg in 1921, Max Hermann Friedrich Löhlein is identified in reliable German biographical records as a physician, anatomist, and pathologist. Reference sources also connect him with bacteriology, showing a career rooted in laboratory medicine and medical teaching.
Library and authority records suggest that he contributed to scientific and medical literature rather than to fiction or general literature. He is listed in sources such as Deutsche Biographie, the Hessian Biography portal, the University of Leipzig's historical staff records, and the Wellcome Collection, which together point to a short but serious academic career in German medicine.
Because the readily available sources are brief, many personal details about his life remain hard to confirm from standard public references. What can be said with confidence is that he belonged to the generation of early 20th-century German medical researchers working in pathology and infectious-disease science.
