Edward Jenner FRS FRCPE 1749-1823

Edward Jenner was an English physician and scientist who pioneered the concept of vaccines and created the smallpox vaccine, the world’s first vaccine. The terms vaccine and vaccination are derived from Variolae vaccinae (‘pustules of the cow’), the term coined by Jenner to denote cowpox. He used it in 1798 in the title of his Inquiry into the Variolae vaccinae known as the Cow Pox, in which he described the protective effect of cowpox against smallpox.
