Professor Dr. Ljudevit Jurak (1881-1945).

Many physicians have given their lives performing their duties at work; many have fallen victims to laboratory accidents or have contracted the disease they were studying. Great numbers of them have also died in civil or military hospitals during the bombardment, or in the field. We shall keep in our memory not only them but also those who were killed in prisons only because they had not conformed to the regime they lived under. Some have been lucky enough to escape and live today some place far away from home. As scientists they have contributed greatly to their new home countries far from the inconvenient conditions they used to live in before.
