Biographical History
Strong (Johns Hopkins, M.D. 1897) was chief of the medical department of the General Hospital in Manila (1910-1913) and from 1907 to 1913 taught tropical medicine in the Philippine University's College of Medicine and Surgery, which he helped to organize. In 1913 Strong became the first professor of tropical medicine at Harvard, and between 1913 and 1934 made several expeditions to afflicted areas in South and Central America and Africa to investigate diseases and obtain material for his laboratory and teaching work. After retiring from Harvard in 1938, he volunteered to teach in the Army Medical School during the Second World War. During this period Strong was the foremost authority in the U.S. in the field of tropical medicine. Throughout his career he participated in many international commissions investigating disease control.
