In this article, the authors examine the circumstances under which scholars can become effective figures of identification in medicine, after whom prizes or institutions are named – and under which circumstances scholars cannot or can no longer fulfill such a role. Trends and changes in professional cultural memory are examined, illustrated by the biographies and receptions of the human geneticist Hans Nachtsheim, the circulatory researcher Rudolf Thauer, the urologist Dora Teleky as well as the dentists Karl Häupl and Elsbeth von Schnizer. This study shows that the evaluation criteria themselves are historically changeable and that gender is an important influencing factor. While formal criteria (e. g., membership in parties and organizations) have traditionally been important evaluation criteria, the authors advocate that actions in research and clinical practice be given even greater attention in the future.

学者作为身份人物？论医学学科专业文化记忆的处理

在这篇文章中，作者研究了在什么情况下学者可以成为医学领域的有效识别人物，奖项或机构以他们的名字命名——以及在什么情况下学者不能或不能再履行这样的角色。通过人类遗传学家 Hans Nachtsheim、循环研究员 Rudolf Thauer、泌尿科医生 Dora Teleky 以及牙医 Karl Häupl 和 Elsbeth von Schnizer 的传记和接受来阐述专业文化记忆的趋势和变化。这项研究表明，评估标准本身在历史上是不断变化的，而性别是一个重要的影响因素。虽然正式标准（例如政党和组织的成员身份）传统上一直是重要的评估标准，但作者主张，未来应更加关注研究和临床实践中的行动。
