Abstract
In the death of Jules Freund on April 22, 1960, immunology lost a rarely gifted proponent. He had viewed the advancing stages of multiple myeloma with calm, analytic appraisal, and his study and writing continued throughout the months of hospitalization.
Born in Budapest on June 24, 1890, Jules (Julius) Freund studied in that city at the Royal Hungarian University. After receiving the degree of M.D. at the age of 23, he served as Medical Interne in the Austrian Army (1913–1914) and was attached to the Department of Hygiene at the University as Assistant. Following the outbreak of war in 1914, he saw service in the Austrian Army and returned to the University in Budapest as Commissioner for Hygiene in the army. He held the post of Assistant Professor in Preventive Medicine, earning the Certificate of Public Health in 1920. In 1922 he went to Hamburg, working in the Department of Hygiene at the Medical School.
