Greek Professors of the Medical School of Constantinople during a Period of Reformation (1839–76)

Abstract: A medical school was founded in Constantinople in 1827. Greek medics were involved with the new school right from its foundation, mainly because they had studied in Europe and knew other European and Asian languages. This paper reviews the lives of five of them: Stefanos Caratheodory; Constantinos Caratheodory; Sarantis Archigenis; Spyridon Mavrogenis; and Marco Pitsipio (Apostolidi Pasha), who was appointed a director of the Medical School. A few of the other Greek professors are also briefly discussed.
