French veterinarian and microbiologist, whose main contribution to medicine has been the discovery of the genre of bacteria which was named in his honour, Nocardia. It causes nocardiosis, a disease which manifests itself mainly in animals of economic importance, such as bovine farcy, for which he discovered the first Nocardia, named by him initially as Streptothrix farcinica. The Nocardia may also cause disease in humans, particularly in immunocompromised patients, such as those with AIDS. In the field of veterinary pathology he discovered the pathogen of endozootic mastitis, Streptococcus agalactiae. Nocard also discovered the virus which causes bovine peripneumonia and studied psittacosis. He died on 2 August 1903 in Saint-Maurice, aged 53. Link to Wikipedia biography
