Burrill Bernard Crohn (June 13, 1884 – July 29, 1983)[1] was an American gastroenterologist who made the first major advance to identify the disease that now bears his name.[2] Although the description of Crohn's disease is by far his most famous accomplishment, Crohn had a long career both as a clinician and as a researcher who contributed to modern understanding of many gastrointestinal conditions.
